Abstract:
Networks use channel state information reference signals (CSI-RSs) to measure channel conditions between a user equipment (UE) and a transmit/receive point (TRP) in a cell. The resources configured for the transmission of a CSI-RS may be indicated to the UE using higher layer signaling. Measurement results for a CSI-RS are transmitted by the UE in the form of a measurement report. A need exists for signaling designs that aim to provide more flexible and efficient signaling of CSI-RS resource configurations and measurement reports. In some embodiments, CSI-RS resource configurations and measurement reports are resource-specific. The CSI-RS resource configurations may be independent from an identifier of the cell that the CSI-RS is transmitted from, and the measurement reports do not necessarily include the identifier of the cell. Advantages may include allowing the network to freely allocate CSI-RS resources without the need for reconfiguration at the UE side.

Claim (Index 24):
An apparatus comprising:\n a receiver configured to receive higher layer signaling indicating a first configuration of resources for a first associated synchronization signal block (SSB) transmitted from at least one transmit/receive point (TRP) of a cell; and a transmitter configured to transmit signaling comprising feedback, the feedback indicating that the first associated SSB was not detected when the apparatus does not detect the first associated SSB, wherein the receiver is further configured to receive further higher layer signaling indicating a second configuration of resources for a second associated SSB transmitted from the at least one TRP, the second configuration of resources being different from the first configuration of resources.
