BEAM FAILURE DETECTION RESOURCE SET FOR PHYSICAL DOWNLINK CONTROL CHANNEL (PDCCH) WITH REPETITION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18007454 Titled 'BEAM FAILURE DETECTION RESOURCE SET FOR PHYSICAL DOWNLINK CONTROL CHANNEL (PDCCH) WITH REPETITION'

Simplified Explanation

This disclosure presents a system and method for using a beam failure detection reference signal resource set for a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) with repetition. The system involves a user equipment (UE) monitoring a PDCCH transmission using multiple transmission control indicator (TCI) states. The UE determines a beam failure detection reference signal resource set based on the characteristics of the TCI states or a list of reference signals configured based on the TCI states. By monitoring this reference signal resource set, the UE can identify any beam failure that may occur.


Original Abstract Submitted

This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for using a beam failure detection reference signal resource set for a physical downlink control channels (PDCCH) with repetition. In one aspect, a user equipment (UE) may monitor a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) transmission using at least two transmission control indicator (TCI) states. The UE may determine a beam failure detection reference signal resource set associated with the PDCCH monitoring based at least in part on a characteristic of the one or more of the TCI states or a list of a pair of reference signals configured based at least in part on one of the at least two TCI states. The UE may monitor the first beam failure detection reference signal resource set associated with the PDCCH monitoring to identify a beam failure.
