US 2019/0320364 A1 · METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SUPPORTING MOBILITY OF TERMINAL IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

Abstract

A base station and a method by the base station for supporting mobility of a terminal in a beamforming-based wireless communication system are provided. The method includes generating beam-related information for a plurality of terminals from beam measurements result received respectively from the plurality of terminals, detecting a path in a coverage area of the base station according to the beam-related information, and transmitting a message to the terminal determined to move along the path for supporting mobility based on the beam-related information.
