==Original Abstract Submitted==

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit a first control message indicating a static or dynamic capability of the UE to support hybrid beamforming and adaptive beam weights-based analog beamforming. The UE may receive a second control message indicating a first set of reference signal resources associated with the hybrid beamforming and a second set of reference signal resources associated with the adaptive beam weights-based analog beamforming. The UE may transmit a first set of reference signals via the first set of reference signal resources and a second set of reference signals via the second set of reference signal resources and, receive, in response, a third control message indicating a rank indicator associated with the hybrid beamforming or the adaptive beam weights-based analog beamforming.
