Abstract

A User equipment (UE) receives a control resource set (CORESET) configuration for a full duplex CORESET. The UE performs a measurement for full duplex operation based on at least one of a downlink beam or an uplink beam for full duplex beam failure detection based on one or more quasi co-location (QCL) relationships to one or more transmission configuration indication (TCI) states of the CORESET based on an absence of a configuration of a reference signal for the full duplex beam failure detection.
