1. A method for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
measuring a set of synchronization signal blocks;
selecting a set of candidate beams for measuring a channel state information reference signal based at least in part on a power measurement associated with an uplink performance;
selecting a subset of the set of candidate beams for measuring the channel state information reference signal based at least in part on the measurements of the set of synchronization signal blocks;
measuring a spectral efficiency using a first candidate beam from the subset of the set of candidate beams based at least in part on the channel state information reference signal; and
transmitting, to a network entity, the measurement of the spectral efficiency based at least in part on measuring the spectral efficiency using the first candidate beam.
