Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A served user equipment (UE) may receive a first configuration signal configuring the served UE with first transmission beam resources and second transmission beam resources for the served UE to use for beam management over a sidelink channel. The served UE may identify, based at least in part on the first configuration signal, a pattern for performing beam management using the first transmission beam resources and the second transmission beam resources. The served UE may perform the beam management over the sidelink channel in accordance with the pattern using the first transmission beam resources and the second transmission beam resources.
