Techniques discussed herein can facilitate autonomous user equipment beam failure recovery abort aspects. One example aspect is a baseband processor configured to, when executing instructions stored in a memory, perform operations comprising: detecting a beam failure of a downlink (DL) beam; determining that a beam recovery abort condition is satisfied after detecting the beam failure; aborting a random access channel (RACH) transmission when the beam recovery abort condition is satisfied; and maintaining a connection with the DL beam after aborting the RACH transmission.
