Abstract
Systems, devices, and techniques for wireless communications based on one or more transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states are described. A described technique performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving a first downlink channel based on a current TCI state; receiving a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) in a first slot, the PDSCH carrying a radio resource control (RRC) activation command in the first slot, the RRC activation command indicating a switch to a target TCI state; waiting until an end of a switching period triggered by the RRC activation command to use the target TCI state, the switching period being based on a RRC processing delay; and receiving, based on the end of the switching period, a second downlink channel based on the target TCI state in a second slot.
