Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A first user equipment (UE) may transmit reference signals bursts during an initial beam pairing (IBP) resource. In some examples, each reference signal burst may include an occasion for transmitting a reference signal of a set of reference signals. A second UE may measure the reference signals during the IBP resource and may determine a beam for sidelink communications with the first UE based on measuring the set of reference signals. The second UE may transmit a response message during a response occasion of the IBP resource, where each response occasion within the IBP resource corresponds to a respective reference signal of the set of reference signals. As such, the second UE may transmit a response message during a response occasion that corresponds to the reference signal associated with the selected beam, thereby indicating the selected beam to the first UE.
