1. A method of wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
estimating, for two or more resources on two or more beams having phase continuity, an effective joint channel associated with the two or more beams based on individual measurements respectively corresponding to the two or more beams; and
transmitting, to the base station, a group-based beam report including joint channel information that indicates the effective joint channel.
