1. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media having instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause a user equipment (UE) to:
perform a plurality of beam measurements corresponding to a beam received by the UE;
determine a plurality of local angle of arrival (AoA) estimates corresponding to the beam based on the plurality of beam measurements;
convert the plurality of local AoA estimates to a plurality of global AoA estimates;
determine a global AoA based on the plurality of global AoA estimates;
utilize the global AoA for identification of a beam received from a base station;
determine whether a reliability threshold has been achieved for the global AoA based on a probability of the global AoA being an actual global AoA; and
determine which of a sensor based AoA estimation state or a sensor assisted beam tracking state is to be implemented based on whether the reliability threshold has been achieved.
