1. A method allowing a user equipment (UE) to perform a wireless measurement, comprising:
configuring a characteristic of a channel-state information reference signal (CSI-RS) for tracking of the UE by setting:
a power level of the CSI-RS for tracking to a value smaller than a power level characteristic of a radio resource management (RRM) reference signal,
wherein the RRM reference signal includes one of an RRM measurement signal, a radio link monitoring (RLM) signal, a beam failure detection (BFD) signal, a candidate beam detection (CBD) signal, or a beam reporting (BR) testing signal; and
performing a wireless measurement using the CSI-RS.
