BEAM REFINEMENT WITH SIMULTANEOUS SPATIAL-DIVISION MULTIPLEXED BEAMS

Abstract:

Wireless communications systems and methods related to beam refinement with simultaneous spatial-division multiplexed beams are provided. A user equipment (UE) receives, from a base station (BS), a plurality of reference signals in a set of beam directions. The receiving includes receiving, simultaneously during a first symbol, at least a first reference signal of the plurality of reference signals in a first beam direction of the set of beam directions and a second reference signal of the plurality of reference signals in a second beam direction of the set of beam directions, where the second beam direction is different from the first beam direction. The UE transmits, to the BS, a beam report indicating received signal measurements for two or more beam directions of the set of beam directions.
