NETWORK-CONTROLLED REPEATER BEHAVIOR FOLLOWING BEAM FAILURE RECOVERY

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some aspects, a wireless repeater, such as a network-controlled repeater (NCR), and a network entity may support one or more signaling- or configuration-based mechanisms according to which the wireless repeater is able to set a forwarding functionality of the wireless repeater to either an ON state or an OFF state based on a beam failure recovery (BFR) procedure. For example, upon recovery of communications between the wireless repeater and the network entity in accordance with the BFR procedure, the wireless repeater and the network entity may determine whether the forwarding functionality of the wireless repeater is to remain in an OFF state and, if so, for what time duration the forwarding functionality of the wireless repeater is to remain in the OFF state after the BFR procedure.
