System and method for reference signaling design and configuration

A wireless communication method, comprising:

• sending, by a wireless communication node to a wireless communication device, a signaling that activates or deactivates a synchronization signal block (SSB) resource set;
• wherein the signaling includes a Medium Access Control-Control Element (MAC-CE) or a first downlink control information (DCI).

A wireless communication device, comprising:

• at least one processor configured to:
• receive, via a receiver from a wireless communication node, a signaling that activates or deactivates a synchronization signal block (SSB) resource set;
• wherein the signaling includes a Medium Access Control-Control Element (MAC-CE) or a first downlink control information (DCI).

A wireless communication node, comprising:

• at least one processor configured to:
• send, via a transmitter to a wireless communication device, a signaling that activates or deactivates a synchronization signal block (SSB) resource set;
• wherein the signaling includes a Medium Access Control-Control Element (MAC-CE) or a first downlink control information (DCI).
