Abstract

A method of performing a beam failure recovery procedure in a user equipment (UE) that includes a Physical (PHY) layer and a Medium Access Control (MAC) layer includes detecting, with the PHY layer, abeam failure for a beam used for communication between the UE and a base station (BS), receiving, with the MAC layer, one or more beam failure instances from the PHY layer, transmitting, from the MAClayer to the PHY layer, a request for a candidate beam based on a number of the beam failure instances, reporting, from the PHY layer to the MAC layer, first beam information that indicates the candidate beam, and causing, with the MAC layer, the PHY layer to transmit, to the BS, a beam failure recovery request that indicates the candidate beam.

Description

Technical field [0001] One or more embodiments disclosed herein relate to a method for performing a beam failure recovery process in a User Equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system. Background technique [0002] In new radio (NR; fifth-generation (5G) radio access technology) systems that use higher frequencies, beamforming technology becomes critical to achieving adequate coverage and data rates. In the NR system, a user equipment (UE) uses a beam selected in a beam management scheme to communicate with a base station (BS). [0003] For example, when the UE detects a beam failure of the beam used for communication with the BS, the UE performs a beam failure recovery (BFR) procedure. In the BFR process, the physical (Physical, PHY) and Medium Access Control (Medium Access Control, MAC) layers of the UE are required to operate in a coordinated manner. However, in the current NR standard, it has not been determined how the PHY and MAC layers should perform their functions ...
