Abstract
Apparatuses and methods for beam management for repeaters. A method for a network-controlled repeater (NCR) includes receiving, by an NCR mobile termination (NCR-MT) entity, first information for a list of spatial domain filters for an access link of an NCR forwarding (NCR-Fwd) entity, second information for a set of spatial relations corresponding to reference signals (RS) for transmission or reception on a control link (C-link) of the NCR-MT entity, and third information indicating an uplink (UL) or downlink (DL) direction for each time domain resource. The method further includes determining an UL time domain resource, a first spatial domain filter, and a second spatial domain filter based on the second information. The method further includes receiving, by the NCR-Fwd entity, a radio frequency (RF) signal on the access link using the first spatial domain filter and transmitting the RF signal on a backhaul link using the second spatial domain filter.
