Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a repeater may steer a narrow beam in a plurality of directions in a time sequence according to a beam sweep pattern, and retransmit one or more communications between a base station and one or more user equipments (UEs) using at least the narrow beam in the beam sweep pattern. A base station may determine a beam sweep pattern of the repeater based at least in part on feedback from the UEs. Numerous other aspects are provided.
