Default transmission beams for multiple transmission-reception points in wireless communications

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for concurrent communications between multiple transmission-reception points (TRPs) and a user equipment (UE). A default beam for each of the TRPs may be determined, and in the case that the default beams are unable to be concurrently received at the UE, a prioritization rule may be applied to determine which TRP uses the initially determined default beam, where the other TRP(s) may use a different beam. A UE also may be configured with a subset of control resource sets for each TRP, such that beams associated with different configured subsets are compatible and able to be concurrently received at the UE. Other techniques for providing compatibility between beams of multiple concurrent TRP transmissions include determination of a first beam, and selection of a second beam based on a mapping to the first beam, or explicit configuration by a base station.

System and method for improving beam management procedures

Aspects of the disclosure relate to beam management techniques in a wireless communication system. A UE establishes a communication link with a base station and receives a set of transmit beams transmitted via a plurality of symbols in a sequential manner, wherein a respective transmit beam is transmitted in a respective symbol of the plurality of symbols. The UE measures, for each transmit beam in the set of transmit beams, a set of signal strengths corresponding to the respective transmit beam using a plurality of receive beams in the respective symbol, wherein a respective signal strength is measured based on a respective receive beam. The UE then sends a feedback message to the base station including at least an identification of a transmit beam having a highest measured signal strength among all sets of signal strengths measured for the set of transmit beams and the highest measured signal strength.
