Restrictions in Beam Failure Detection
A wireless device receives one or more configuration parameters indicating a first beam detection set including a first reference signal and a second beam detection set including a second reference signal. The first reference signal overlaps in at least one symbol with the second reference signal. The wireless device measures, for beam failure and in response to the first beam detection set being different from the second beam detection set, both the first reference signal and the second reference signal.
Failure Recovery for Serving Cell
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to failure recovery for serving cell. A terminal device detects a failure on a serving cell of the terminal device. If the beam failure is detected, the terminal device transmits information concerning the detected failure to a network device. The network device is associated with the serving cell. The terminal device disables further transmission of the information to the network device.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING BEAM FAILURE RECOVERY INFORMATION BY USER EQUIPMENT IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
A method for transmitting a truncated beam failure recovery (BFR) medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method comprises steps of generating a truncated BFR MAC CE while not exceeding an available grant size upon detecting beam failures on a plurality of serving cells; and transmitting the truncated BFR MAC CE to the network, wherein generating the BFR MAC CE comprises: based on beam failure being detected on a special cell (SpCell) among the plurality of serving cells, including BFR information for SpCell among the plurality of serving cells into the truncated beam failure MAC CE firstly; and based on beam failure being detected on at least one SCell among the plurality of serving cells, including first BFR information for each of the at least one secondary cell (SCell) into the truncated beam failure MAC CE in ascending order of a serving cell index, and including second BFR information for each of the at least one SCell into the truncated beam failure MAC CE in ascending order of the serving cell index.
BEAM FAILURE RECOVERY IN A CELL THAT INCLUDES MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION AND RECEPTION POINTS
The present application relates to beam failure recovery in a cell that includes multiple transmission and reception points (TRPs). In an example, a UE can perform a beam failure detection (BFD) procedure to detect, per TRP, whether a beam failure occurs. The UE can also perform one or more beam failure recovery (BFR) procedures based on the number of beam failures, the type of cell, and/or other related information.
TECHNIQUES FOR DETERMINING BEAMS FOR BEAMFORMING WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS
Aspects described herein relate to configuring, at a device, default beam information for determining a beam for data channel communications. The device can determine to use the default beam information for configuring the beam for a data channel communication based on determining explicit beam information is not configured. In addition, the device can transmit, based on determining to use the default beam information, the data channel communication based on the beam configured using the default beam information.
BEAM FAILURE RECOVERY FOR SINGLE DCI-BASED M-TRP URLLC TRANSMISSIONS
Apparatuses and systems for providing multiple structures to enable flexibility of a multiple multiple transmission and reception point ultra-reliable low-latency communication (M-TRP URLLC) operation and reduce measurement effort and power consumption from a transceiving apparatus such as a UE are provided. The techniques disclosed here feature a transceiving apparatus including a transceiver and circuitry. The transceiver, in operation, receives signals from multiple transmission and reception points (M-TRPs) in a network on at least physical downlink shared channels (PDSCHs). The circuitry, in operation, performs beam failure recovery (BFR) by evaluating beam failure detection (BFD) and candidate new beam detection (CBD) for the signals from at least a first one of the M-TRPs. The signals from the first one of the M-TRPs comprise signals received on a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), and the circuitry determines to skip evaluation of one or both of the BFD and the CBD for one or more additional ones of the M-TRPs in response to one or more conditions.
Beam Failure Detection and Recovery Procedures with Common Beams
A method may include incrementing, by a wireless device, a beam failure detection (BFD) instance counter based on detection of a first beam failure of a first reference signal (RS). The method may include resetting the BFD instance counter based on an indication of a transmission configuration indicator (TCI) state applicable for receptions of physical downlink channels, wherein the TCI state is associated with a second RS. The method may include transmitting a beam failure recovery request based on the BFD instance counter being greater than a threshold, wherein the BFD instance counter is incremented based on detection of a second beam failure of the second RS.
Support of high pathloss mode
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A wireless device (e.g., a user equipment and/or base station) may operate in a first mode in a wireless network over a radio frequency spectrum band. The wireless device may receive a signal indicating that a value of the radio frequency spectrum band has satisfied a threshold value. The wireless device may switch, based at least in part on the signal indicating that the value has satisfied the threshold value, from the first mode to a second mode for wireless communications in the wireless network, wherein a first length of a first synchronization signal block associated with the first mode is shorter than a second length of a second synchronization signal block associated with the second mode.
BEAM FAILURE RECOVERY METHOD AND APPARATUS, AND DEVICE
A beam failure recovery method and apparatus, and a device. The method includes: determining, based on a measurement result of a target reference signal corresponding to a target physical downlink control channel PDCCH, whether a beam failure event occurs, where the target PDCCH includes at least a first PDCCH repeatedly transmitted for K times, and K≥2; and reporting a beam failure recovery request to a network-side device.
TECHNIQUES FOR AUTONOMOUS BEAM FAILURE INDICATOR COUNTING
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may receive a periodic reference signal from a base station and may measure the periodic reference signal as part of a beam failure detection (BFD) procedure. To detect a beam failure, the UE may autonomously select a beam failure indicator (BFI) counting scheme from a set of BFI counting schemes and may increment a BFI count in accordance with the selected BFI counting scheme and based on measuring the reference signal. The different BFI counting schemes of the set of BFI counting schemes may feature different techniques or methods for incrementing the BFI count per one or more BFI reports. As such, the UE may selectively choose how to weight different sets of one or more BFI reports in terms of contribution to the BFI count, which may improve BFD detection at the UE.
