Facilitation of beam failure indication for multiple transmission points for 5g or other next generation network

Abstract

For the case of multi-transmission point transmissions (TRPs), when a transmission on one of the TRPs fail, the network can receive date from a mobile device such that the network knows immediately that the transmission failed on a network node. After received the failed transmission data, the network can facilitate the mobile device switching from a dual transmission usage between two network devices to a single transmission usage between the network device for which the transmission has not been determined to fail.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method, comprising:
 in response to a determination that a first physical downlink shared channel and a first physical downlink control channel of a first base station device have failed, the determination being indicative of a beam failure, reporting, by a mobile device comprising a processor, the beam failure of the first base station device to a second base station device; and   in response to the beam failure being determined to have ceased, reimplementing, by the mobile device, a dual information transmission associated with the first base station device and the second base station device.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 in response to the receiving the first physical downlink shared channel and the first physical downlink control channel, configuring, by the mobile device, a resource setting for a resource associated with the first base station device.   
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein the resource is a synchronization signal associated with the first base station device. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein the resource is a physical broadcast channel associated with the first base station device. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the reporting comprises reporting on a transmit beam selected by the second base station device. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the determination that the first physical downlink shared channel and the first physical downlink control channel have failed is based on a block error rate first physical downlink control channel. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the beam failure is further to be reported via a physical uplink control channel of the second base station device. 
     
     
         8 . A system, comprising:
 a processor; and   a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:   in response to a first physical downlink control channel being determined to have failed, indicative of a beam failure, terminating first data, associated with a first physical downlink shared channel and the first physical downlink control channel, from a first base station; and   in response to the beam failure being determined to have ceased, reimplementing a dual data transmission associated with the first base station and a second base station.   
     
     
         9 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:
 selecting a transmit beam of the second base station to be utilized to receive beam failure data representative of the beam failure.   
     
     
         10 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:

         11 . The system of  claim 10 , wherein the transmission configuration indication state is utilized to decode the first physical downlink shared channel and a second physical downlink shared channel. 
     
     
         12 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein beam failure data representative of the beam failure is received via a physical uplink shared channel of the second base station. 
     
     
         13 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein beam failure data representative of the beam failure is received via a radio access channel of the second base station. 
     
     
         14 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:
 in response to receiving the first physical downlink shared channel and the first physical downlink control channel, configuring, by a mobile device, configured to receive the first data from the first base station and second data from the second base station, a resource setting for a resource associated with the first base station.   
     
     
         15 . A non-transitory machine-readable medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
 in response to a first physical downlink control channel transmission associated with a first physical downlink shared channel data being determined to have failed, indicative of a beam failure, facilitating terminating the first physical downlink control channel transmission between a mobile device and first base station equipment; and   in response to the beam failure being determined to have ceased, reimplementing a dual data transmission associated with the first base station equipment and second base station equipment.   
     
     
         16 . The non-transitory machine-readable medium of  claim 15 , wherein beam failure data representative of the beam failure is received via a physical uplink control channel associated with the second base station equipment. 
     
     
         17 . The non-transitory machine-readable medium of  claim 16 , wherein the physical uplink control channel transmits acknowledgment data representative of an acknowledgment for the second base station equipment.
