Abstract
A UE may be configured to detect an occurrence of a beam failure condition for a failed downlink transmission received from a network entity using a first beam. The UE may transmit, over a sidelink to a second UE, a BFR in response to detecting the beam failure condition. The UE may receive, over the sidelink from the second UE or from the network entity, a beam switching instruction to switch from the first beam to a second beam. The UE may receive, from the network entity, a retransmission of the failed downlink transmission using the second beam.
