U-2: is used to enable TRP measurement on different TRP Rx beams to possibly change/select inter/intra-TRP Rx beam(s)
U-3: is used to enable TRP measurement on the same TRP Rx beam to change UE Tx beam in the case UE uses beamforming
FFS Indication of information related to Tx/Rx beam correspondence is supported
Study UL beam management based on:
- PRACH
- SRS
- DM-RS
- Other channels and reference signals are not precluded
Study uplink beam management procedure by considering the Tx/Rx beam correspondence
- For the case of TRP and UE have Tx/Rx beam correspondence
- For the case of TRP has no Tx/Rx beam correspondence and/or UE has no Tx/Rx beam correspondence
There are some agreements on beam management and/or group common PDCCH in RAN1 # AH1_NR meeting, as described in the Final Report of 3GPP TSG RAN WG1 # AH1_NR v1.0.0 (Spokane, USA, 16-20 Jan. 2017) as follows:
