Method and apparatus for beam management

A user equipment (UE) for wireless communication, comprising:

• at least one memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the UE to:
• receive pilot signals from a plurality of base stations (BSs);
• measure channel state information (CSI) between the UE and each of the plurality of BSs;
• generate a CSI matrix based on the measured CSI between the UE and the plurality of BSs;
• encode the CSI matrix;
• and
• transmit the encoded CSI matrix to at least one of the plurality of BSs for a beamforming matrix generation by a beamforming model, wherein the beamforming model comprises an inception structure block comprising at least two branches and at most one pooling layer for filtering input data which is included in one branch of the at least two branches, each branch including at least one convolutional layer.
