What is TCI (Transmission Configuration Indicator) State: A Transmission Configuration Indicator (TCI) states are dynamically sent over in a DCI message which includes configurations such as QCL-relationships between the DL RSs in one CSI-RS set and the PDSCH DMRS ports.
What is TCI framework?
a so-called transmission configuration indication. (TCI) signaling framework where a beam for a target. channel/signal (e.g., PDSCH, PDCCH, CSI-RS) to be. received by the UE can be indicated by a TCI.
What is quasi co located?
One mode of operation is beam management with indica- tion, where a concept known as Quasi-co-location (QCL) is used to provide an instruction to the UE which it can use to adjust receiver settings. Different QCL types and relations were defined by 3GPP.
