1. An apparatus for wireless communication at a second user equipment (UE), comprising:
one or more memories; and
one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories, the one or more processors configured to cause the second UE to:
receive one or more parameters during a sidelink discovery procedure performed with a first UE on a first frequency band, wherein the one or more parameters include a location of the first UE;
beam sweep one or more receive beams on a second frequency band in a direction of the first UE, wherein the direction is based on the location of the first UE; and
determine at least one receive beam of the one or more receive beams to receive at least one transmit beam from the first UE on the second frequency band.
