    Abstract: Some aspects include an apparatus, method, and computer program product for facilitating control messaging for multi-beam communications in 5G wireless communication systems. Nodes of a 5G network may be generate Medium Access Control Control Elements (MAC CEs) to update User Equipment (UE) with different Component Carrier (CC) settings. The MAC CEs may update a list of CCs to reduce messaging overhead and latency. For example, a MAC CE may indicate an update for a Transmission Configuration Indication (TCI) state for a list of CCs. Similarly, a MAC CE may be used to update a spatial relation for a Sounding Reference Signal (SRS) resource set and/or a SRS resource corresponding to a list of CCs. A MAC CE may also be used to update multiple TCI codepoints having one or two TCI states in a multi-Transmission Reception Point (multi-TRP) scenario.

    Abstract: Techniques are provided for protection of a user equipment (UE) parameter update (UPU) header protection. An example method can include generating, for transmission to an access and mobility management function (AMF) of a network, a first message that includes an indication as to whether a UE supports protection of a UPU header. The method can further include processing, a second message from the network from the network, the second message including UE configuration parameters comprising a UPU transparent container including a UPU header and UPU data, the UPU header protected based at least in part on the indication.
