20. A method of wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
detecting whether a reference signal is present in a channel at a time instance at which the reference signal is expected; and
selectively gating processing of the reference signal based on whether the reference signal is present in the channel, wherein selectively gating processing of the reference signal when the reference signal is not detected in the channel comprises gating reporting of an estimate of the channel based on the reference signal.
