Abstract
A method of a user equipment (UE) for a beam management in a wireless communication system/ The method comprises receiving, from a base station (BS), configuration information including information of receive (Rx) beam identifications (IDs) associated with Rx beams, receiving, from the BS, reference signals for determining the Rx beams, wherein the Rx beams include different Rx beam IDs, respectively, measuring, based on the Rx beams, a beam reference signal (BRS) and a channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS) received from the BS, and performing, based on the configuration information, an Rx beam cycling operation for the Rx beams to receive downlink channels.
