Abstract

The present application provides a method and device for wireless communications, comprising determining a first reference signal resource for beam selection management; determining whether a first message is transmitted on a first channel according to at least whether there exists an incomplete beam failure recovery procedure, the first message indicating the first reference signal resource; wherein a transmission of the first message is for the beam selection management. The method proposed in the present application can achieve simultaneous running of beam failure recovery and beam selection management.
