1. An apparatus for wireless communication, comprising:
a memory; and
at least one processor coupled to the memory, wherein the apparatus is configured to:
receive a resource set configuration associated with a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) framework, wherein the resource set configuration indicates a synchronization signal (SS) block resources for beam measurement and indicates a reporting configuration for reporting beam information associated with the SS block resources; and
report, in accordance with the reporting configuration, an indicator corresponding to at least one SS block resource of the SS block resources.
