A base station (UE) is configured to perform a computer-implemented method for antenna fault detection and correction. The computer-implemented method includes acquiring one or more sounding reference signals (SRSs) received from at least one gNB antenna; detecting an antenna failure based on the one or more SRSs; estimating a noise power based on the antenna failure and a history of received SRSs; detecting a missing SRS based on the noise power and the history of received SRSs; and handling the missing SRS. Handling the missing SRS is based on performing at least one of: replacing an SRS measurement with a predicted SRS value for the missing SRS when the predicted SRS is available; or avoiding use of the missing SRS in a sequential SRS prediction when the predicted SRS is unavailable.

In some aspects, a base station may transmit a message, to a user equipment (UE), instructing the UE to activate or update a reference signal (RS) corresponding to an uplink communication transmitted by the UE. The base station may communicate with the UE, after a time period, using a beam configuration of the base station that corresponds to a beam configuration of the UE for transmitting the RS, the time period being based at least in part on a determination of whether the UE identified the beam configuration of the base station.
