Abstract

Beam management for the downlink can be based on user equipment (UE) measurement of downlink (DL) reference signal (RS) and UE reporting. An alternative approach that may reduce overall RS overhead and latency is BM for the downlink based on uplink (UL) RS. With this approach, the network measures UL RS transmissions on multiple beams and uses these measurements for managing beams for the DL. Disclosed herein are various problems and enhancements related to UL RS based DL BM, in particular beam failure detection and recovery.
