Edge device and method for sensor-assisted beamforming

A method of radar-assisted beamforming, the method comprising:

• sensing, by a sensor of an edge device, a surrounding area of the edge device;
• detecting, by control circuitry of the edge device, a first user in the surrounding area of the edge device;
• tracking, by the control circuitry, the detected first user in the surrounding area of the edge device;
• controlling, by the control circuitry, a antenna array of the edge device to direct a first beam of radio frequency (RF) signal in a direction of the tracked first user;
• detecting and tracking, by the control circuitry, a second user concurrently with the first user in the surrounding area of the edge device;
• and
• updating, by the control circuitry, the control of the antenna array to direct a second beam of RF signal in a second direction towards the second user concomitant to the directed first beam of RF signal in the first direction towards the first user.
