Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may perform a digital simulation to determining a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) associated with a digital reception beam. A base station may send, to the UE, a reference signal, and the UE may generate digital sector beams spanning a set of oversampled digital reception beams. The digital sector beams may be generated based on the number of antennas of the UE and a Kaiser Window configuration. The UE may perform a coarse beam search procedure on the reference signal using the set of digital sector beams and select a digital sector beam for a refined beam search used to determine a PMI for reporting to the base station.

A base station antenna includes a reflector having a plurality of pairs of opposed faces, a connector port, a plurality of radiating elements mounted to extend outwardly from the respective faces of the reflector, where each of the radiating elements is coupled to the connector port, and a plurality of RF lenses, each RF lens mounted outwardly of a respective one of the radiating elements and associated with the respective radiating element. The number of radiating elements coupled to the connector port is equal to the number of faces on the reflector.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for configuring beam failure recovery operations. A method includes performing beam failure detection of a beam pair link associated with a secondary cell, wherein a user equipment (UE) is configured with one or more uplink control channel groups, each of the one or more uplink control channel groups comprising a corresponding plurality of component carriers where one of the corresponding plurality of component carriers is designated for communication of an uplink control channel for the corresponding uplink control channel group; determining one or more cells on which to send a beam failure recovery request (BFRQ) message based on a number of uplink control channel groups the UE is configured with; sending the BFRQ on the one or more cells; and receiving a beam failure recovery response message on at least one of the one or more cells.

A base station includes a plurality of antennas, a data unit (DU) comprising a first processor and a first memory containing instructions, which when executed by the first processor, cause the DU to receive a signal to be transmitted via the plurality of antennas, obtain per-antenna-power-constraint (PAPC) information, determine an estimated effective transmission power (P.sub.eff) based on the PAPC information, and pre-schedule the signal for transmission based on the P.sub.eff. The base station further includes a massive MIMO unit (MMU) comprising a second processor and a second memory containing instructions, which when executed by the second processor, cause the MMU to receive, from the DU, the pre-scheduled signal, perform pre-coding on the pre-scheduled signal based on a current value of a PAPC determined at the MMU to normalize per-antenna gain of antennas of the plurality of antennas, and provide the pre-coded signal for transmission via the plurality of antennas.
