Abstract: A user equipment for a wireless communication is configured to interact the radio link monitoring and beam failure recovery for resolving radio link failure quickly. When the out-of-synchronization (OOS) condition is detected in PHY sublayer, a timer may start to wait to receive a beam recovery success indication. Once the beam recovery success indication is received in RRC sublayer, the RRC sublayer may determine to consecutively receive a number of in-synchronization (IS) indications. If the number of the consecutively received IS indication is larger than or equal to a threshold number by comparing, the radio link is identified as being recovered.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured with at least one bandwidth part (BWP) specific configuration information. The UE receives a configuration information specific to the bandwidth part (BWP). The configuration information configures an initial value of a beam failure detection (BFD) timer and a beam failure indication (BFI) count threshold. The UE starts or re-starts the BFD timer from the initial value when receiving a beam failure indication (BFI) from a lower sublayer, and counts a number of the received BFIs using a BFI counter. The UE resets the BFI counter to zero when receiving a reconfiguration information. The reconfiguration information, that is specific to the BWP, re-configures at least one of the initial value of the BFD timer and the BFI count threshold.
