IMPLICIT BEAM SWITCH OR ACTIVATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240243798 titled 'IMPLICIT BEAM SWITCH OR ACTIVATION
Simplified Explanation: The patent application relates to wireless communication, where a user equipment (UE) can receive a Medium Access Control Control Element (MAC CE) indicating Transmission Configuration Indicator (TCI) states to be activated. The UE also receives Channel Measurement Resources (CMRs) corresponding to the TCI states, and transmits Channel State Information (CSI) reports for the CMRs. The UE can switch to a beam quasi-co-located with a TCI state without receiving Downlink Control Information (DCI) indicating the switch.
- User equipment (UE) receives MAC CE indicating TCI states to be activated.
- UE receives CMRs corresponding to TCI states and transmits CSI reports.
- UE can switch to a beam quasi-co-located with a TCI state without DCI.
- Innovation focuses on efficient wireless communication and beamforming techniques.
- The technology aims to enhance network performance and user experience.

Original Abstract Submitted
various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. in some aspects, a user equipment (ue) may receive a medium access control control element (mac ce) that indicates one or more transmission configuration indicator (tci) states to be activated. the ue may receive one or more channel measurement resources (cmrs) that correspond to the one or more tci states. the ue may transmit a channel state information (csi) report for a first cmr of the one or more cmrs. the ue may switch to a beam that is quasi-co-located (qcled) with a first tci state, of the one or more tci states, that corresponds to the first cmr, independent of receiving downlink control information (dci) that indicates switching to the first tci state. numerous other aspects are described.
