Techniques and apparatus for beam sweeping pattern switching. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving signaling configuring the UE with a first set of repetition and beam sweeping patterns for half-duplex communications and a second set of repetition and beam sweeping patterns for full-duplex communications; and participating in half-duplex communications and full-duplex communications using the first and second sets of repetition and beam sweeping patterns.
