1. A method of wireless communication by a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
selecting one of a first beam or a second beam that is wider than the first beam for transmission of an uplink signal based on a power spectrum density (PSD), wherein the first beam or the second beam is selected when the PSD is greater than at least one threshold and wherein the second beam is selected when the PSD is less than the at least one threshold, the PSD being based on a transmission power and a bandwidth associated with the transmission of the uplink signal; and
transmitting the uplink signal using the selected one of the first beam or the second beam.
