1. A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
communicating via a serving beam set of the UE, the serving beam set being one or more beams of a plurality of beams; and
measuring another beam set in accordance with a measurement schedule configured to prioritize measurement on one or more adjacent beam sets associated with the serving beam set over measurement on one or more non-adjacent beam sets associated with the serving beam set wherein:
the one or more adjacent beam sets are associated with one or more coverage areas that at least partially overlap a coverage area of the serving beam set or are adjacent to the coverage area of the serving beam set, or
the one or more adjacent beam sets are associated with a measurement value that satisfies a threshold in the coverage area of the serving beam.
