1. A method for wireless communications, comprising:
receiving, at a first user equipment (UE), a downlink control information (DCI) to facilitate a multi-beam full-duplex communication in sidelink with a second UE;
configuring a single separate search space for each of the first UE and the second UE to contemporaneously transmit and receive data over a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH);
decoding the DCI to identify one or more beams from a plurality of candidate beams to be used for the multi-beam full-duplex communication by the first UE, wherein the multi-beam full-duplex communication comprises the first UE contemporaneously transmitting uplink communication over at least a first beam and receiving downlink communication over at least a second beam on a same frequency band;
transmitting, during a first time slot, uplink data over a first set of antennas of the first UE to the second UE on at least the first beam identified based on the decoding of the DCI; and
receiving, during the first time slot, downlink data over a second set of antennas of the first UE from the second UE on the at least the second beam identified based on the decoding of the DCI.
