Optimized reconfiguration of RLM and beam monitoring parameters
Disclosed herein is a method performed by a wireless device for optimized reconfiguration of radio link monitoring, RLM, and beam monitoring. The method includes receiving, from a first network node, a first message comprising at least one RLM parameter related to at least one reference signal. The method further includes receiving, from the first network node, a second message comprising a bitmap indicating activation of at least one RLM parameter associated with the first message. The method additionally includes monitoring one or more reference signals based on the first message and the second message.

receiving, from the first network node, a second message comprising a bitmap indicating activation of at least one RLM parameter associated with the first message, wherein the bitmap is comprised in a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) of the second message; and
monitoring one or more reference signals based on the first message and the second message.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the at least one RLM parameter comprises a first RLM parameter and a second RLM parameter,
the first RLM parameter being associated with a first set of reference signal resources,

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one reference signal resource comprises at least one synchronization signal block, SSB, or at least one channel state information-reference signal, CSI-RS.
5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising, in response to receiving the second message, refraining from monitoring one or more other reference signals based on the first message and the second message.
6 . A wireless device for radio link monitoring, RLM, the wireless device comprising:
memory storing instructions; and
processing circuitry operable to execute the instructions to cause the wireless device to:
receive, from a first network node, a first message comprising at least one RLM parameter related to at least one reference signal, the first message being a radio resource control (RRC) message;
receive, from the first network node, a second message comprising a bitmap indicating activation of at least one RLM parameter associated with the first message wherein the bitmap is comprised in a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) of the second message; and
monitor one or more reference signals based on the first message and the second message.
7 . The wireless device of claim 6 , wherein:
the at least one RLM parameter comprises a first RLM parameter and a second RLM parameter,
the first RLM parameter being associated with a first set of reference signal resources,
the second RLM parameter being associated with a second set of reference signal resources, and
the second set of reference signal resources is different from the first set of reference signal resources.
8 . The wireless device of claim 7 , wherein each of the first set of reference signal resources and the second set of reference signal resources are less than a number of reference signal resources providing coverage of a cell.
9 . The wireless device of claim 6 , wherein the at least one reference signal resource comprises at least one synchronization signal block, SSB, or at least one channel state information-reference signal, CSI-RS.
10 . The wireless device of claim 6 , wherein the processing circuitry is further operable to execute instructions to cause the wireless device to, in response to receiving the second message, refrain from monitoring one or more other reference signals based on the first message and the second message.
11 . A network node for radio link monitoring, RLM, the network node comprising:
memory storing instructions; and
processing circuitry operable to execute the instructions to cause the network node to:
transmit, to a wireless device, a first message comprising at least one RLM parameter related to at least one reference signal, the first message being a radio resource control (RRC) message;
transmitting, to the wireless device, a second message comprising a bitmap indicating activation of at least one RLM parameter associated with the first message wherein the bitmap is comprised in a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) of the second message;
transmitting a plurality of reference signals wherein the plurality of reference signals comprises at least one reference signal to be monitored by the wireless device based on the first message and the second message.
12 . The network node of claim 11 , wherein:
the at least one RLM parameter comprises a first RLM parameter and a second RLM parameter,
the first RLM parameter being associated with a first set of reference signal resources,
the second RLM parameter being associated with a second set of reference signal resources, and
