Abstract
Embodiments herein relate to a wireless device for handling communication of the wireless device in a wireless communication network, wherein a radio network node in the wireless communication network provides radio coverage over a cell. The wireless device receives from the radio network node, when the wireless device is in a first state, a beam configuration indicating which beam or beams of the cell the wireless device is allowed to select during a state transition or initial access. Furthermore, the wireless device performs an initial access to the cell or a state transition taking the beam configuration into account.
Claims17
A method performed by a wireless device for handling communication of the wireless device in a wireless communication network, wherein a radio network node in the wireless communication network provides radio coverage over a cell, the method comprising:
- receiving from the radio network node, when the wireless device is in a first state, a beam configuration indicating which beam or beams of the cell the wireless device is allowed to select during a state transition or initial access;
- and
- performing an initial access to the cell or a state transition taking the beam configuration into account.
A method performed by a radio network node for handling communication of a wireless device in a wireless communication network, wherein the radio network node provides radio coverage over a cell in the wireless communication network, the method comprising
- transmitting to the wireless device, when the wireless device is in a first state, a beam configuration indicating which beam or beams the wireless device is allowed to select during an initial access or a state transition.
A wireless device for handling communication of the wireless device in a wireless communication network, wherein a radio network node in the wireless communication network is configured to provide radio coverage over a cell, wherein the wireless device is configured to:
- receive from the radio network node, when the wireless device is in a first state, a beam configuration indicating which beam or beams of the cell the wireless device is allowed to select during a state transition or initial access;
- and
- perform an initial access to the cell or a state transition taking the beam configuration into account.
A wireless device comprising processing circuitry for handling communication in a wireless communication network, wherein a radio network node in the wireless communication network is configured to provide radio coverage over a cell, wherein the processing circuitry is configured to:
- receive from the radio network node, when the wireless device is in a first state, a beam configuration indicating which beam or beams of the cell the wireless device is allowed to select during a state transition or initial access;
- and
- perform an initial access to the cell or a state transition taking the beam configuration into account.
A radio network node comprising processing circuitry for handling communication in a wireless communication network, wherein the radio network node is configured to provide radio coverage over a cell in the wireless communication network, wherein the processing circuitry is configured to
- transmit to the wireless device, when the wireless device is in a first state, a beam configuration indicating which beam or beams the wireless device is allowed to select during an initial access or a state transition.
