Claim 7:
8. A non-transitory machine-readable medium having executable instructions, that, when executed by a processor of a user equipment, causes the processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving a first channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) signal through a first cell and a second CSI-RS signal through a second cell, the first CSI-RS signal and the second CSI-RS signal being periodic;
determining a first Rx beam to measure the first CSI-RS signal and a second Rx beam to measure the second CSI-RS signal based on quasi-colocation (QCL) information;
measuring only the first CSI-RS signal with the first Rx beam, in response to the first CSI-RS signal and the second CSI-RS signal being fully overlapped; and
performing at least one of a) measuring the second CSI-RS signal when not overlapped, and measuring the first CSI-RS signal when overlapped, or b) measuring the second CSI-RS signal when not overlapped, and alternating between measuring the first CSI-RS signal and the second CSI-RS signal when overlapped, in response to one or more occasions of the second CSI-RS signal not being overlapped with the first CSI-RS signal.
