Abstract: A UE determines (a) resources of a PDCCH indicating a PDSCH that contains a random access message or indicating an uplink grant for transmitting a random access message and (b) resources of a second PDCCH. The UE further determines, in a time domain, (a) that the first PDCCH overlaps with the second PDCCH, (b) that the first PDCCH overlaps with a second PDSCH that contains system data or user data and indicated by the second PDCCH, (c) that the first PDSCH overlaps with the second PDCCH, or (d) that the first PDSCH overlaps with the second PDSCH. The UE then determines that monitoring the second PDCCH is an unexpected operation.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide a user equipment (UE). The UE receives configuration information of multiple transmission configuration indication (TCI) states. The UE receives one or more activation commands that associate a first subset of the TCI states with one or more codepoints of a TCI field and a second subset of the TCI states with the one or more codepoints of the TCI field. The UE receives a codepoint associated with a first TCI state in the first subset of the TCI states and a second TCI state in the second subset of the TCI states. The UE determines at least one first quasi co-located (QCL) assumption according to the first TCI state and at least one second QCL assumption according to the second TCI state. The UE receives a downlink transmission based on the at least one first QCL assumption and the at least one second QCL assumption.

Abstract: A method of default uplink beam determination after a beam failure recovery (BFR) procedure in a beamforming system is proposed. For uplink (UL) transmission, the BS provides physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource configuration to UE. The configuration includes spatial relation information that indicates the spatial filter to be used by UE for the corresponding PUCCCH transmission. After BFR procedure is completed and before the first spatial relation information indication for a PUCCH resource is received by UE, a default UE TX beam for the PUCCH resource can be determined based on the UE TX beam used during the BFR procedure, e.g., the UE TX beam used to transmit a beam failure recovery request (BFRQ) during the BFR procedure.

Abstract: A User Equipment (UE) including a wireless transceiver and a controller is provided. The wireless transceiver performs wireless transmission and reception to and from a cellular station. The controller uses one or more first preambles within a PRACH time-frequency resource to perform a synchronous transmission on the PRACH to the cellular station via the wireless transceiver, or uses one or more second preambles within the PRACH time-frequency resource to perform an asynchronous transmission or a synchronous transmission on the PRACH to the cellular station via the wireless transceiver.

Abstract: In one novel aspect, configurations for PDCCH transmission and reception with multiple transmission points are provided. The UE configures a PDCCH associated with a CORSET comprising multiple CCEs, partitions the CORSET into multiple TCI-state sets, wherein each TCI state set includes multiple CCE groups associated with corresponding TCI-state, which corresponds to a source TRP, activates one TCI state set, and receives DCI via the PDCCH, wherein the PDCCH is transmitted from at least the first source TRP and the second source TRP, and wherein each source TRP transmits corresponding portion of DCI data mapping to the corresponding first and second CCE group. The CORSET is partitioned in FDM or TDM way. In another novel aspect, a first and a second PDCCH associated with a first and a second TRP are configured for repetition transmission. The second PDCCH configuration is dependent upon the first PDCCH configuration.

Abstract: A method for harmonized operation between radio link monitor and beam failure recovery is proposed. In one example, upon indication of unsuccessful recovery from beam failure, a counter is initiated to count a configured number of OOS indication before RLF is declared due to beam failure. In another example, upon indication of successful recovery from beam failure, a counter is initiated to count a configured number of IS indication before starting over RLM procedure on its previous observations on failed beams. As a result, either early RLF declaration or RLM reset may be triggered based on BFR procedure to more accurately maintain the link quality.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide a method for beam management at a base station (BS) in a wireless communication system. The method can include transmitting a beam training reference signal (RS) resource configuration from a base station (BS) to a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, transmitting an anchor association index indicating an association between a beam pair link and a set of second transmit beams of the BS, wherein the beam pair link is formed by a first transmit beam of the BS and a receive beam of the UE, transmitting beam training RSs according to the beam training RS resource configuration on the set of second transmit beams, and receiving a measurement report including quality measurements of beamformed channels over the receive beam and a subset of the second transmit beams.

Abstract: A beam indication (BI) mechanism is proposed to provide user equipment (UE) information of network (NW) beam(s) for later transmission. UE can then select its UE beam(s) for the later transmission based on the BI. In one embodiment, NW provides beam management configuration to UE via Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling, and then provides beam indication index signaling to UE via MAC-CE or DCI. The beam management configuration comprises a mapping table between network beams and configured reference signal (RS) resources. The beam indication index signaling indicates one or more preferred beam pair links (BPLs). Upon triggering a beam management procedure by the network, UE is able to identify the beam management procedure and selects corresponding UE beam(s) based on the beam management configuration and the beam indication index signaling.

Abstract: A method of beam failure recovery request (BFRQ) transmission is proposed. In a first step of beam failure detection, UE detects a beam failure condition of the original serving beam. In a second step of new candidate beam identification, UE performs measurements for candidate beam selection. In a third step of beam failure recovery request (BFRQ) transmission, UE transmits a BFRQ message to BS upon the triggering condition for BFRQ transmission is satisfied. In a fourth step of monitoring BS response, UE monitors BS response to decide the success or failure of the BFRQ transmission attempt. In one advantageous aspect, the BFRQ transmission is over dedicated contention-free PRACH or PUCCH resources or over contention-based PRACH resources. Furthermore, a beam failure recovery timer is used to oversee the initiation and the termination of the BFRQ transmission.

Abstract: A method of beam reciprocity state reporting and uplink beam management in wireless communication systems with beamforming is proposed. In one novel aspect, a UE determines its UE beam reciprocity state and sends a “UE beam reciprocity state” message to a BS, which triggers proper uplink beam management accordingly. The UE beam reciprocity state message can take place when UE tries to register to the network. For example, according to factory setting, UE reports at least “Positive” or “Negative” in this message. Beam reciprocity state can be updated by a “UE beam reciprocity state update” message. An auxiliary information can be transmitted to the BS for UL beam management if UE reports “Negative” for beam reciprocity state. The auxiliary information indicates the uncertainty level of UE beams.
