Abstract:
A method of operating a user equipment (UE) includes receiving first information for a physical cell identifier (PCI) different from a serving cell PCI; receiving second information for source or measurement reference signals (RSs) for the PCI; determining, based on one or more transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states, the first information, and the second information, a reception spatial domain filter for reception of at least one of downlink (DL) RSs and channels from the PCI; and measuring, based on the first information and the second information, the measurement RS. The method further includes determining, based on the measured measurement RSs, the first information, and the second information, a beam report and transmitting the beam report for the PCI on an uplink (UL) channel. A beam refers to a spatial property used to receive or transmit a source RS or a channel.
