Cell selection for beam failure reporting of candidate beams
A wireless device may detect beam failure of a number of cells. In response to the number of the cells being greater than a maximum number that a beam failure recovery medium-access control control element (BFR MAC CE) accommodates, the wireless device may select one or more cells of the cells based on an ascending order of cell indexes of the cells. The wireless device may transmit the BFR MAC CE comprising a candidate reference signal index or a reserved bit for each of the one or more cells.
1. A method comprising:
detecting, by a wireless device, beam failure of a number of cells;
in response to the number of the cells being greater than a maximum number that a beam failure recovery medium-access control control element (BFR MAC CE) accommodates, selecting one or more cells of the cells based on an ascending order of cell indexes of the cells; and
transmitting the BFR MAC CE comprising a candidate reference signal index or a reserved bit for each of the one or more cells.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the reserved bit indicates that no candidate reference signal is available.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving one or more configuration parameters comprising a list of candidate reference signal indexes of candidate reference signals for beam failure recovery of the cells, wherein the candidate reference signal indexes comprise the candidate reference signal index.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
transmitting an uplink signal after initiating a beam failure recovery procedure for one or more of the cells; and
receiving downlink control information (DCI) indicating uplink resources, wherein:
the transmitting the BFR MAC CE is via the uplink resources.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the selecting based on the ascending order of the cell indexes comprises selecting the one or more cells with the lowest cell indexes among the cell indexes of the cells.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining to include the reserved bit, for a first cell of the one or more cells, in the BFR MAC CE based on not identifying a candidate reference signal for the first cell.
7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising determining to include a first candidate reference signal index of a first candidate reference signal, for a second cell of the one or more cells, in the BFR MAC CE based on identifying the first candidate reference signal for the second cell.
8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining to include a first candidate reference signal index of a first candidate reference signal, for a first cell of the one or more cells, in the BFR MAC CE based on identifying the first candidate reference signal for the first cell.
9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining to include the reserved bit, instead of the candidate reference signal index, based on not identifying a candidate reference signal for a first cell of the one or more cells.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the reserved bit is a predetermined number of reserved bits.
11. A wireless device comprising:
one or more processors;
memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:
detect beam failure of a number of cells;
in response to the number of the cells being greater than a maximum number that a beam failure recovery medium-access control control element (BFR MAC CE) accommodates, select one or more cells of the cells based on an ascending order of cell indexes of the cells; and
transmit the BFR MAC CE comprising a candidate reference signal index or a reserved bit for each of the one or more cells.
12. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the reserved bit indicates that no candidate reference signal is available.
13. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to receiving one or more configuration parameters comprising a list of candidate reference signal indexes of candidate reference signals for beam failure recovery of the cells, wherein the candidate reference signal indexes comprise the candidate reference signal index.
14. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to:
transmit an uplink signal after initiating a beam failure recovery procedure for one or more of the cells; and
receive downlink control information (DCI) indicating uplink resources, wherein:
the transmitting the BFR MAC CE is via the uplink resources.
15. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the selecting based on the ascending order of the cell indexes comprises selecting the one or more cells with the lowest cell indexes among the cell indexes of the cells.
16. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to determine to include the reserved bit, for a first cell of the one or more cells, in the BFR MAC CE based on not identifying a candidate reference signal for the first cell.
17. The wireless device of claim 16 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to determine to include a first candidate reference signal index of a first candidate reference signal, for a second cell of the one or more cells, in the BFR MAC CE based on identifying the first candidate reference signal for the second cell.
18. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to determine to include a first candidate reference signal index of a first candidate reference signal, for a first cell of the one or more cells, in the BFR MAC CE based on identifying the first candidate reference signal for the first cell.
19. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions further cause the wireless device to determine to include the reserved bit, instead of the candidate reference signal index, based on not identifying a candidate reference signal for a first cell of the one or more cells.
20. The wireless device of claim 11 , wherein the reserved bit is a predetermined number of reserved bits.
21. A system comprising:
a base station comprising one or more first processors and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more first processors, cause the base station to transmit one or more configuration parameters for cells; and
a wireless device comprising one or more processors and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the wireless device to:
receive, from the base station, the one or more configuration parameters;
detect beam failure of a number of the cells;
in response to the number of the cells being greater than a maximum number that a beam failure recovery medium-access control control element (BFR MAC CE) accommodates, select one or more cells of the cells based on an ascending order of cell indexes of the cells; and
transmit, to the base station, the BFR MAC CE comprising a candidate reference signal index or a reserved bit for each of the one or more cells.
