Abstract

Methods and apparatuses for triggering a power headroom report for beam operation in a wireless communication system are disclosed herein. In one method, a user equipment (UE) uses multiple beams for transmission. The UEtriggers a power headroom report due to a change of a pathloss being larger than a threshold, wherein the pathloss is associated with a specific beam or a set of beams.
