Abstract
A user equipment (UE) includes a receiver that receives, from a base station (B S), multiple reference signals transmitted using first beams, a processor, and a transmitter. The first beams comprise at least one second beam used for Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) transmission between the BS and the UE and third beams that are not used for the PDCCH transmission. The processor measures quality of the first beams. The transmitter reports, to the BS, the quality of the at least one second beam and part of the third beams.
