Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A channel engineering device may receive control signaling that triggers the channel engineering device to perform one or more angle of arrival (AoA) measurements on one or more reference signals and transmit an AoA measurement report based on the AoA measurements. The base station may process the AoA measurement report and send a control message that configures one or more settings at the channel engineering device. The base station may determine a beam shaping configuration that modifies the one or more settings at the channel engineering device to reflect, focus, refract, or filter signal energy of a transmission by the base station toward a user equipment (UE), a transmission by the UE toward the base station, or both. The base station and one or more UEs may communicate using the channel engineering device based on the beam shaping configuration.
