Beam Management without Beam Correspondence

Abstract:

Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a wireless device to perform beam management procedures with a base station. A wireless device in communication with a 5G base station may perform measurements and determine constraints relevant to beam selection. The device may select a recommended beam based on the measurements and constraint(s) and indicate the recommended beam to the base station. A recommended uplink beam may not correspond to a recommended downlink beam.
