Abstract
According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus comprising means for receiving from a network node a transmission using a set of beams, wherein the transmission comprises at least directional media content, estimating a viewing direction based at least partially on directional properties of at least one beam of the set of beams, selecting a tile of the directional media content based on the estimated viewing direction and displaying the tile of the directional media content on a mobile device.

An apparatus comprising at least one processing core, and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code being configured to, with the at least one processing core, cause the apparatus at least to perform:
- receive from a network node a transmission using a set of beams, wherein the transmission comprises at least directional media content, wherein the directional media content is comprised of a plurality of tiles, and wherein a respective beam of the set of beams is associated with a respective tile of the plurality of tiles;
- estimate a viewing direction based on directional properties of at least one beam of the set of beams, wherein the directional properties comprise at least a direction tag associated with the at least one beam;
- select a tile of the plurality of tiles associated with the directional media content based on the estimated viewing direction;
- and
- display the tile of the directional media content on a mobile device.
An apparatus comprising at least one processing core, and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code being configured to, with the at least one processing core, cause the apparatus at least to perform:
- transmit a transmission using a set of beams, wherein the transmission comprises at least directional media content, wherein the directional media content is comprised of a plurality of tiles, and wherein a respective beam of the set of beams is associated with a respective tile of the plurality of tiles;
- and
- transmit information for displaying a tile of the directional media content on a mobile device.
A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon a set of computer readable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause an apparatus to at least perform:
- transmitting a transmission using a set of beams, wherein the transmission comprises at least directional media content, wherein the directional media content is comprised of a plurality of tiles, and wherein a respective beam of the set of beams is associated with a respective tile of the plurality of tiles;
- and
- transmitting information for displaying a tile of the directional media content on a mobile device.
