Failure Recovery and Beam Selection in Wireless Communications
Wireless communications are described. Failure recovery associated with resource(s) may be used. A wireless device may select, based on a determined failure, a suitable candidate resource for cell(s), such as secondary cell(s). The wireless device may use the suitable candidate resource, such as a candidate beam, for an uplink channel transmission via a secondary cell, for example, until a new uplink channel configuration/activation is received.
1 . A method comprising:
transmitting, by a wireless device, a first uplink signal associated with beam failure recovery (BFR) for a cell, wherein the first uplink signal indicates a candidate beam reference signal (RS) associated with the cell; and
after completing the BFR for the cell, transmitting a second uplink signal using a spatial filter that is based on whether the cell is a primary cell or a secondary cell.
2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, after transmitting the second uplink signal, at least one indication of a spatial relation associated with at least one second uplink control channel transmission; and
transmitting, based on a second spatial filter associated with the spatial relation, a third uplink signal, wherein the second spatial filter is different from the spatial filter associated with the at least one second uplink control channel transmission.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the transmitting the first uplink signal comprises transmitting, via a second cell different from the cell, a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE).
4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
transmitting, prior to transmitting the first uplink signal, a scheduling request; and
receiving, based on the scheduling request, an uplink grant,
wherein the transmitting the first uplink signal comprises transmitting, based on the uplink grant, a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE).
5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, during a first symbol, a response to the first uplink signal,
wherein the receiving the response completes the BFR for the cell, and
wherein the transmitting the second uplink signal comprises transmitting, after a quantity of symbols following the first symbol, the second uplink signal.

11 . The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the wireless device to:
transmit, prior to transmitting the first uplink signal, a scheduling request;
receive, based on the scheduling request, an uplink grant; and
transmit the first uplink signal by transmitting, based on the uplink grant, a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE).
12 . The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the wireless device to:
receive, during a first symbol, a response to the first uplink signal; and
transmit the second uplink signal by transmitting, after a quantity of symbols following the first symbol, the second uplink signal, wherein receiving the response completes the BFR for the cell.
13 . The wireless device of claim 8 , wherein the spatial filter is used for reception of the candidate beam RS by the wireless device, and wherein the spatial filter is associated with a transmit beam.
