According to a first aspect of embodiments herein, the object is achieved by a method performed by a User Equipment (UE) for monitoring a beam transmitted by a base station in a radio communications network. The base station is serving the UE. The UE monitors a reference signal related to the beam, from the base station. Each time a quality of the reference signal is below a first threshold, the UE generates an Out-Of-Synchronization (OOS) event. When the number of OOS events reaches an OOS Beam Failure Detection (BFD) threshold, the UE triggers a beam recovery preparation procedure, and when the number of OOS events reaches an OOS Radio Link Monitoring (RLM), threshold, the UE starts an RLF timer.
