Abstract

A communication node receives a first message, and the first message is used to determine a first reference signal resource set; whenever first-type radio link quality assessed based on the first reference signal resource set is worse than a first threshold, increases a first counter by 1; and transmits a first radio signal for beam management, and the first radio signal indicates a first reference signal resource; determines a second reference signal resource set from a first candidate reference signal resource pool based on at least the first reference signal resource; as a response to the first counter reaching a first value, transmits a second radio signal, the second radio signal is used for beam failure recovery, and the second radio signal indicates a second reference signal resource; the second reference signal resource belongs to the second reference signal resource set. This optimizes the beam management procedure for multi-TRP.
