1. A network entity configured for wireless communication, the network entity comprising:
one or more memories; and
one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories, the one or more processors configured to:
provide a discovery signal on a first set of frequency resources within a bandwidth part to facilitate discovery of a cell associated with the network entity; and
provide a synchronization signal block (SSB) on a second set of frequency resources within the same bandwidth part to provide a cell identifier (ID) of the cell, wherein a portion of the second set of frequency resources is different than the first set of frequency resources and wherein the second set of frequency resources partially overlaps the first set of frequency resources.
