## Abstract

According to a first embodiment, a method may include receiving, by a user equipment, at least one indication of at least one non-default measurement profile. The method may further include determining, by the user equipment, that at least one predefined condition applies. The method may further include applying, by the user equipment, one or more of at least one adapted measurement, at least one non-adapted measurement, at least one default measurement profile, at least one non-default measurement profile, at least one adapted measurement profile, and at least one non-adapted measurement profile.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A method, comprising:
receiving, by a user equipment, at least one indication of at least one non-default measurement profile;
determining, by the user equipment, that at least one predefined condition applies;
upon determining that the at least one predefined condition applies, applying, by the user equipment, at least one adapted measurement profile adapted according to one or more of at least one beam failure detection measurement requirement and at least one radio link monitoring measurement requirement; and
upon at least one predetermined number of failure instances having been indicated to a higher layer, transitioning, by the user equipment, from at least one adaptation state to at least one default or non-adapted state.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, further comprising:
configuring, by the user equipment, at least one default measurement profile.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, further comprising:
upon receiving the at least one indication of at least one non-default measurement profile, initiating, by the user equipment, at least one timer.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, further comprising:
applying, by the user equipment, the at least one adapted measurement profile until at least one other condition changes the applied measurement profile while the timer is running.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The method according to claim 1, further comprising:
reporting, by the user equipment, the current state of at least one evaluated network condition associated with adapting at least one user equipment measurement when the timer expires.

### Claim 6

An apparatus, comprising: at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code, wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to:
receive at least one indication of at least one non-default measurement profile;
determine that at least one predefined condition applies;
upon determining that the at least one predefined condition applies, apply at least one adapted measurement profile adapted according to one or more of at least one beam failure detection measurement requirement and at least one radio link monitoring measurement requirement; and
upon at least one predetermined number of failure instances having been indicated to a higher layer, transition from at least one adaptation state to at least one default or non-adapted state.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the apparatus is further configured to:
configure at least one default measurement profile.

### Claim 8 (depends on 6)

The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the apparatus is further configured to:
upon receiving the at least one indication of at least one non-default measurement profile, initiate at least one timer.

### Claim 9 (depends on 6)

The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the apparatus is further configured to:
apply the at least one adapted measurement profile until at least one other condition changes the applied measurement profile while the timer is running.

### Claim 10 (depends on 6)

The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the apparatus is further configured to:
report the current state of at least one evaluated network condition associated with adapting at least one user equipment measurement when the timer expires.

### Claim 11 (depends on 6)

The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the apparatus is further configured to:
apply the indicated non-default measurement profile when a particular condition is triggered.

### Claim 12 (depends on 6)

The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the particular condition is associated with downlink and/or uplink inactivity and/or activity.

### Claim 13 (depends on 6)

The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the at least one timer is started and/or restarted each time the user equipment transmits and/or receives data.

### Claim 14 (depends on 6)

The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the apparatus is further configured to:
activate a specific measurement profile when the user equipment switches to a default measurement profile.

### Claim 15 (depends on 6)

The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the switch to a default measurement profile is in response to an expiration of a bwp-inactivityTimer and/or due to at least one explicit measurement profile switching command causing the user equipment to switch to the at least one default measurement profile.

### Claim 16 (depends on 6)

The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the apparatus is further configured to:
change from a non-discontinuous reception (DRX) operation to DRX operation.

### Claim 17 (depends on 6)

The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the apparatus is further configured to:
upon declaring at least one radio link anomaly and/or problem, transition from at least one adaptation state to at least one default or non-adapted state.

### Claim 18 (depends on 6)

The apparatus according to claim 6, wherein the at least one preconfigured trigger condition is associated with at least one specific measurement profile.

### Claim 19 (depends on 1)

A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoding instructions that, when executed in hardware, perform a process according to claim 1.
