1. An apparatus for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
memory; and
at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to cause the UE to:
receive downlink control information (DCI) comprising a transmission configuration indicator (TCI) state that indicates a beam update, and the DCI indicating that the DCI is for the beam update based on a combination of: a redundancy version (RV) field, a frequency domain resource allocation (FDRA) field, a time domain resource allocation (TDRA) field, a new data indicator (NDI) field, and a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) field, wherein values for each of the RV field, the FDRA field, and the MCS field are set to ones and the NDI field is set to zero; and
transmit an uplink transmission or receive a downlink transmission based on the beam update indicated in the DCI.
