1. A method of wireless communication by a user equipment (UE), comprising:
identifying a first UE receive beam configured as a current serving receive beam that is actively used to communicate with a base station, the first UE receive beam having one or more child beams or one or more parent beams and the first UE receive beam having a first beam width;
determining, at the UE, a set of receive beams based on identifying the first UE receive beam configured as the current serving receive beam, wherein the set of receive beams comprises a subset of UE receive beams, wherein determining the set of receive beams comprises determining a set of receive beams that includes at least one of a child beam of the one or more child beams or a parent beam of the one or more parent beams, wherein the one or more child beams comprise a second beam width narrower than the first beam width and wherein the one or more parents beam comprise a third beam width wider than the first beam width; and
measuring respective channel qualities associated with each beam of the determined set of receive beams.
