1. An apparatus for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
one or more memories storing processor-executable code; and
one or more processors coupled with the one or more memories, at least one processor of the one or more processors configured to cause the UE to:
receive a non-binary beam failure indicator configuration that indicates one or more parameter values, wherein the one or more parameter values indicate a lookup table that maps a set of potential non-binary beam failure indicator values to a set of potential channel condition estimates;
receive, using a beam, a reference signal associated with a channel for wireless communication; and
generate, based at least in part on the lookup table, a non-binary beam failure indicator in accordance with a measurement associated with the beam, wherein the non-binary beam failure indicator comprises a weight associated with at least one non-binary beam failure indicator value.
