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.

a second field indicating a candidate beam reference signal (RS) associated with the cell; and
after completing the BFR for the cell, transmitting a second uplink signal via the PUCCH using a spatial filter that is determined based on whether the cell is a primary cell or a secondary cell.
