## Abstract

One or more transmission parameters for data transmission may be determined for wireless communications. A wireless device may determine transmission parameters for data transmission based on configuration associated with control signaling. For example, the transmission parameters (e.g., transmission beam, transmission power, etc.) may be determined based on a selected spatial relation, among multiple spatial relations, corresponding to a control channel.
