Discovery preamble content for a device discovery procedure
Techniques are described for performing beam sweep procedures as part of a device discovery procedure. A transmitting device (e.g., user equipment (UE) or base station) may generate a discovery preamble that is configured to indicate that a discovery message will be transmitted. The discovery preamble may be a smaller message (e.g., less bits) than the discovery message and thus may use fewer resources when it is being communicated. The transmitting device may transmit a plurality of signals that include a discovery preamble as part of beam sweep procedure. Once the transmitting device identifies a receiving device, the transmitting device may broadcast the discovery message. The discovery preamble may include a variety of different types of information including information relating to an identifier for the transmitting device, a discovery mode of the transmitting device, beam configurations, communication resources, beam sweep indexes, or a combination thereof.
