Abstract: A system and methods for beam failure recovery and management for multi-carrier communications with beamforming are disclosed herein. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may monitor for and detect a beam failure of a beam associated with a secondary cell (Scell). The WTRU may select an Scell candidate beam. The WTRU may transmit using a selected uplink (UL) resource in a primary cell (SpCell) a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) including an indication of Scell beam failure and identifying the selected candidate beam. The WTRU may receive an Scell beam failure indication response on the SpCell indicating an SCell index and a downlink (DL) quasi co-location (QCL) reference associated with the Scell. The WTRU may verify that the DL QCL reference matches with the candidate beam. The WTRU may perform random access on the SCell using the selected QCL reference and the selected candidate beam.

Abstract: Systems and methods for PDCCH reliability are disclosed. The PDCCH may be improved by introducing multi-TRP, multi-beam or repeated, PDCCH transmission and reception. In some methods and systems, PDCCH is transmitted on multiple CORESETs (Control Resource Set), where each CORESET is associated with a TCI state. In some cases, it is beneficial if a UE can determine that multiple received DCIs are duplicates, in order not to duplicate the corresponding UE action. Methods and systems for DCI duplication determination are disclosed. In some methods and systems, PDCCH is transmitted in a single CORESET, where the CORESET is associated with multiple TCI states. Various ways to apply the different TCI states to different disjoint frequency parts of the CORESET or the whole CORESET are proposed. Furthermore, the TCI state used for PDCCH may be used for subsequent PDSCH reception as well, in some cases.
