Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine, periodically, at least one metric associated with a current reference signal on a sidelink. Accordingly, the UE may extend a time window allowed for a search for a new reference signal on the sidelink based at least in part on the at least one metric. For example, the UE may extend the time window as a function of a discontinuous reception cycle associated with the UE. Alternatively, the UE may extend the time window for a preconfigured amount of time. Numerous other aspects are described.
