    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide a method, device and computer readable medium for allocating measurement resources. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the terminal device can determine the allocations of measurement resources to the RRM measurement and the beam recovery measurement based on priorities of the RRM and beam recovery measurements. The priorities can be determined based on the needs of the terminal device. In this way, the terminal device is able to find suitable beams faster and the interruption time for date transmission is reduced.

  • Publication number: 20210119688
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing multi-beam downlink channel control procedures. The invention allows for power savings at a user device by indicating what states are to be used and/or indicating deactivation of receiver panels. This is accomplished, at least partially, through the use of a transmission configuration indication table based, at least partially, on measurements made by a user device and panel tags indicating the panels used to make those measurements. Determining optimal downlink and uplink beam selection is accomplished with reference to user device measurements and reporting.
