1. A method performed by a User Equipment (UE) for sending a Scheduling Request (SR) for a multiple secondary cell (SCell) beam failure recovery (BFR) procedure, the method comprising:
receiving, from a Base Station (BS), a SR configuration indicating a first SR index associated with a first SR resource and a second SR index associated with a second SR resource;
triggering a first SR procedure for a first BFR procedure for a first SCell, the first SR procedure comprising:
transmitting a first SR on the first SR resource, and
starting a prohibit timer corresponding to the first SR resource, and
triggering a second SR procedure for a second BFR procedure for a second SCell, the first SCell and the second SCell belonging to the same cell group, the first SR resource and the second SR resource overlapping in a time domain, the second SR procedure comprising transmitting a second SR on the second SR resource when the prohibit timer is not running.
