Methods and apparatuses for uplink spatial relation info switch

Various embodiments herein provide techniques for user equipment (UE) behavior and delay requirements in case of spatial relation information change for an uplink signal, such as a sounding reference signal (SRS), a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), and/or a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH). In one example, the UE determines a delay time period from receipt of a message that indicates spatial relation information for uplink transmission. The delay time period includes a decoding time period and a UE processing and preparation time period. The UE transmits an uplink signal using the indicated spatial relation information after expiration of the delay time period.
