Enhancements on UE initiated beam report
The enhancement of UE initiated beam reports in wireless communication systems addresses the inefficiencies in existing technologies by allowing the UE and network entity to manage reference signals for new beam identification and measurement, resulting in reduced frequent reporting and improved resource management.

AI Technical Summary
Existing wireless communication systems face challenges in efficiently managing UE initiated beam reports, particularly in reducing frequent periodic or semi-persistent beam reporting and ensuring fair comparison between current and candidate beams.
The proposed solution involves a user equipment (UE) and a network entity that report and receive capabilities on the number of reference signals (RSs) for new beam identification, based on specific events. The UE determines a set of RSs for candidate beam measurement, ensuring they have the same type as the RSs for current beam measurement, to facilitate fair comparison.
This approach reduces the frequency of beam report requests, enhances the efficiency of beam measurement resources, and ensures fair comparison between current and candidate beams, thereby improving the overall performance of UE initiated beam reports.
