BEAM FAILURE DETECTION

Abstract:

Aspects relate to detecting beam failure. A beam failure in a full-duplex communication scenario may be detected based on a reference signal measurement. For example, a user equipment (UE) may measure a downlink reference signal transmitted by a base station and/or an uplink reference signal transmitted by the UE and derive a quality parameter based on one or both of these measurements. If the quality parameter indicates a beam failure, the UE may generate an indication that one or more of the beams monitored by the UE have failed.
