Patent ID: 11632750

Abstract:
An method includes determining to perform inter-cell multi-downlink control information (multi-DCI) based multi-transmission reception point (multi-TRP) operation for a user device based on the following: receiving, by the user device from a network node, transmission configuration index (TCI) states for a plurality of control resource sets (CORESETS), wherein the TCI states for the plurality of CORESETs are associated with a plurality of cells having different physical cell identities (PCIs) or associated with a plurality of cell groups; and determining, by the user device, that at least one of the following conditions is present: 1) a multi-DCI based multi-TRP-related high layer parameter has been configured to the user device; 2) a default mode of multi-TRP operation has been configured to the user device; or 3) the user device has received control information indicating physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) TCI state activations corresponding to two different CORESETPoolIndex values; and, performing inter-cell multi-DCI based multi-TRP operation.
