Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to techniques for dynamically updating transmission configuration information (TCI) state and spatial relation information. For example, downlink control information (DCI) or media access control control element (MAC-CE) is used to update a large number of TCI states. As such, high efficiency, such as in terms of low overhead or usage of memory, is achieved with an increase of the upper limit of configured trigger state numbers. The DCI or MAC-CE is used to dynamically update the content in the large number of TCI states.
