Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may be configured with a plurality of resources corresponding to a plurality of antenna elements of the network entity. The UE may measure signaling received via the antenna elements and over the resources to estimate a wireless channel for the plurality of antenna elements of the network entity. In some examples, the UE may determine the per-element wireless channel using the received signal and may report the per-element wireless channel. Additionally, after acquiring the per-element wireless channel, the UE may use joint optimization to calculate analog beams and corresponding digital beams for each antenna element of the network entity. For example, the UE may calculate an analog precoding matrix and a digital precoding matrix. The UE may transmit a report indicating the analog precoding matrix, the digital precoding matrix, channel quality information, or any combination thereof.
