Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Sidelink user equipment (UE) may perform a sidelink beam management procedure in accordance with a sidelink beam management configuration. A first UE may receive sidelink reference signals via a first set of time-frequency resources. As part of the sidelink beam management procedure, the first UE may transmit a sidelink message including feedback and beam management information (e.g., measurements) corresponding to the sidelink reference signals, which a second UE may use for the sidelink beam management procedure. In addition, the first UE may receive a set of demodulation reference signals (DMRSs) associated with a sidelink channel via a second set of time-frequency resources which may be non-overlapping, or at least partially overlapping, with the first set of time-frequency resources. The first UE may use the sidelink reference signals, the DMRSs, or both for sidelink beam management.
