Abstract
Layer 2 structures and procedures may be used for beam management in new radio networks. In a first example, a new radio layer 2 structure may be used to facilitate beam management at the medium access control sublayer. In a second example, new radio feedback mechanisms may be signaled between peer medium access control entities and used to assist with beam management. In a third example, new radio beam management procedures may include new radio beam training, new radio beam alignment, new radio beam tracking, or new radio beam configuration. In a fourth example, new radio connection control procedure may include new radio initial access or new radio mobility management.
