20 Claims

1. A baseband processor configured:

receive a first group of multiple reference signals from a first transmission reception point (TRP) of a network;

receive a second group of multiple reference signals from a second different TRP of the network, wherein the first group of multiple reference signals consists of multiple channel state information (CSI) reference signals (RSs) corresponding to the first TRP, and the second group of multiple reference signals consists of multiple synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) corresponding to the second TRP;

select a first beam associated with one of the multiple reference signals of the first group;

select a second beam associated with one of the multiple reference signals of the second group; and

transmit a message to the network, the message including an indication of the selected first beam and second beam.
