Claim 26:
27. An apparatus for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
a processor; memory coupled with the processor; and
instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
receive, from a network entity, control signaling indicating an activation of a beam failure detection procedure for detecting beam failure on a per-beam basis for a set of beams;
receiving, for each beam of the set of beams, separate beam failure detection parameters comprising a beam failure count threshold, a beam failure detection timer duration, and a block error rate threshold;
monitor for a set of reference signals via the set of beams;
maintain, at a first protocol layer of the UE, a separate beam failure indication counter for each beam of the set of beams base at least in part on beam failure indications obtained from a second protocol layer of the UE on a per-beam basis in accordance with the beam failure detection procedure and the separate beam failure detection parameters; and
perform a beam failure recovery procedure for a first beam of the set of beams based at least in part on a first beam failure indication counter satisfying a first beam failure count threshold for the first beam.
