Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A wireless device may receive, using a first receive port, a first signal within a first frequency band, where the first receive port may be associated with a first receive beam. The wireless device may also receive, using a second receive port, a second signal within the first frequency band concurrently with receiving the first signal, where the second receive port may be associated with a second receive beam. After receiving the first and second signals, the wireless device may process both signals. Processing the signals may include decoding both of the signals, measuring both of the signals, and/or decoding one of the signals and measuring the other of the signals. To support concurrent reception over multiple receive beams within a single frequency band, the wireless device may employ an idle antenna panel and corresponding receive ports.
