Abstract
Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for performing beam failure recovery. An embodiment operates by detecting a beam failure on a secondary cell (SCell). The embodiment transmits, to a base station, a beam failure recovery request (BFRQ) for the SCell over a primary cell (PCell). The embodiment transmits the BFRQ for the SCell over a Primary Uplink Control Chanel (PUCCH), a Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH), or a Primary Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) over the PCell. The embodiment can transmit a schedule request (SR) to allocate a PUSCH over the PCell. The embodiment receives, from the base station, a response for the BFRQ for the SCell over the SCell or the PCell. The embodiment then uses a new beam for the SCell based on the response for the BFRQ for the SCell.
