1. A user equipment (UE) comprising:
one or more non-transitory computer-readable media containing computer-executable instructions embodied therein; and
at least one processor coupled to the one or more non-transitory computer-readable media, the at least one processor configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:
receive a special cell beam failure recovery (BFR) configuration corresponding to a first pecial cell, the special cell BFR configuration including at least one of a resource list for beam failure detection (BFD) and a resource list for new beam identification (NBI), the first special cell comprising one of a primary cell (PCell) and a primary secondary cell group (SCG) cell (PSCell);
detect a beam failure condition in the first special cell;
determine a first new candidate beam index for the first special cell based on the special cell BFR configuration;
transmit a scheduling request (SR) for BFR;
receive a first uplink (UL) grant in response to the transmitted SR;
transmit a beam failure recovery request (BFRQ) in the received first UL grant; and
receive a second UL grant in response to the transmitted BFRQ.
