## Abstract

A wireless device may detect a beam failure on at least one beam. The at least one beam may be of a first cell. A beam failure recovery procedure may be started in response to the beam failure. The beam failure recovery procedure may comprise transmitting a recovery request for a first beam. A beam failure recovery timer for the beam failure recovery procedure may be started. The wireless device may determine a connection failure based on expiration of the beam failure recovery timer. The wireless device may transmit a radio link failure report to a first base station based on the connection failure. The radio link failure report may comprise an index of the first beam.
