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
