Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for high capacity access. A method by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving, from a base station (BS), beam monitoring information, a downlink (DL) transmission assignment, and an associated DL transmission. The beam monitoring information includes a request for the UE to monitor and measure a quality of K beams. The method further includes decoding the beam monitoring information, the DL transmission assignment, and the associated DL transmission; and transmitting, to the BS, a beam metric report and a channel state information (CSI) report.
Claims20
A user equipment (UE) comprising:
- a transceiver configured to receive, from a base station (BS), beam monitoring information, a downlink (DL) transmission assignment, and an associated DL transmission, wherein the beam monitoring information includes a request for the UE to monitor and measure a quality of K beams;
- and
- a processor operably connected to the transceiver, the processor configured to decode the beam monitoring information, the DL transmission assignment, and the associated DL transmission,
- wherein the transceiver is further configured to transmit, to the BS, a beam metric report and a channel state information (CSI) report.
A base station (BS) comprising:
- a processor configured to generate beam monitoring information, a downlink (DL) transmission assignment, and an associated DL transmission, wherein the beam monitoring information includes a request for a user equipment (UE) to monitor and measure a quality of K beams;
- and
- a transceiver operably connected to the processor, the transceiver configured to:
- transmit, to the UE, the beam monitoring information, the DL transmission assignment, and the associated DL transmission;
- and
- receive, from the UE, a beam metric report and a channel state information (CSI) report.
A method for operating a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
- receiving, from a base station (BS), beam monitoring information, a downlink (DL) transmission assignment, and an associated DL transmission, wherein the beam monitoring information includes a request for the UE to monitor and measure a quality of K beams;
- decoding the beam monitoring information, the DL transmission assignment, and the associated DL transmission;
- and
- transmitting, to the BS, a beam metric report and a channel state information (CSI) report.
