Original Abstract Submitted

disclosed are techniques for communication. in an aspect, gnb may report antenna configuration and table that maps antenna element(s) to phase shift and/or amplitude shift to a position estimation entity (pde). the pde may derive beam shape based on the reported information. in another aspect, gnb may report transformation information by which a first beam shape of a first beam is transformed into a second beam shape of a second beam. the pdf may derive the second beam shape of the second beam based in part upon the transformation information
