Abstract: An apparatus (10) comprising means for: enabling testing of at least one user equipment (110, 12) over a plurality of radio frames by: determining (202), for at least one candidate position in a current radio frame, if one or more signals are to be transmitted to the at least one user equipment, based, at least in part, on one or more probabilities associated with the at least one candidate position in the current radio frame; if it is determined, for at least one candidate position in the current radio frame, that one or more signals are to be transmitted to the at least one user equipment, transmitting (204) one or more signals to the at least one user equipment using the at least one candidate position in the current radio frame; if it is determined, for at least one candidate position in the current radio frame, that one or more signals are not be transmitted to the at least one user equipment, determining (206) if a maximum number of transmission failures has occurred, wherein a transmission failure is d

Abstract: According to a first embodiment, a method may include determining, by the user equipment, that a number of beam failure instances is greater than or equal to at least one threshold. The method may further include initiating, by the user equipment, at least one measurement on at least one beam candidate set. The method may further include suspending, by the user equipment, non-beam candidate measurements performed by the user equipment.

Abstract: Certain example embodiments provide systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for handling of measurements relaxation and other activity skipping. The user equipment (UE) may be allowed to relax its various measurements if one or more radio link quality-based relaxation conditions are satisfied and based on whether the UE is also allowed, at the same time, to skip other activities. Based on certain embodiments, the UE may perform the measurements, if another activity has to be performed since relaxation may not provide any power saving benefit under such situation.
