Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, and computer-readable medium to perform operations including: determining time or frequency synchronization information for each of one or more candidate synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) for a secondary cell (SCell) before receipt of a transmission configuration indication (TCI) state activation command or a SCell activation command, receiving the TCI state activation command, and based on the received TCI state activation command, receiving at least one signal from the SCell using the determined time or frequency synchronization information for one of the one or more candidate SSBs.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide multiple cell activation. A user equipment (UE) receives, from a wireless network, a command to activate multiple cells simultaneously. In response, the UE initiates cell activation procedures for the multiple cells. The cell activation procedures include waiting for an active transmission configuration indicator (TCI) indication. The UE monitors for the active TCI indication on any of the multiple cells. In response to receiving the active TCI indication on a first cell of the multiple cells, the UE determines one or more second cells of the multiple cells that share a same spatial relationship with the first cell according to one or more predetermined rule, and autonomously continues the cell activation procedures for the first cell and the one or more second cells.
