  • This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18333450 Titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GROUP-BASED MULTI-BEAM OPERATION'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for operating a user equipment (UE) device. The UE receives configuration information about a set of transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states. It also receives a beam indication, which indicates at least one TCI state from the set. Each TCI state represents a group of beams that are divided into sets for different entities. The UE decodes the beam indication and determines a specific beam for a particular entity based on the set of beams associated with that entity. The UE then uses this determined beam to transmit or receive data in the uplink or downlink direction. The method allows for efficient beam selection and communication in the UE device.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method for operating a user equipment (UE) comprises receiving configuration information on a set of transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states; receiving a beam indication indicating at least one TCI state from the set of TCI states, wherein the at least one TCI state indicates a group of M beams partitioned into K sets of beams for K entities (E, E, . . . E), where an i-th set of beams is associated with entity Eand comprises Nbeams, and ΣN=M; decoding the beam indication; determining a beam for entity Ebased on the i-th set of beams; and transmitting an uplink (UL) transmission or receiving a downlink (DL) transmission based on the determined beam for entity E, wherein i is an entity index and takes a value from {1, . . . , K}.
