BEAM MANAGEMENT: abstract simplified (18203160)

• This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18203160 Titled 'BEAM MANAGEMENT'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes a method for beam management in a network. It explains that a first network device determines a set of resources to be used by a terminal device for determining a set of beams from the first network device. These resources are different from the resources configured by a second network device for the terminal device to determine beams from the second network device. The first network device configures the first set of resources to the terminal device and transmits synchronization and/or reference signals using these beams and resources to the terminal device.

Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, devices and computer readable mediums for beam management. In example embodiments, a method implemented at a first network device is provided. According to the method, a first group of resources are determined to be used by a terminal device for determining a first group of beams from the first network device. The first group of resources are different from a second group of resources configured by a second network device to the terminal device for determining a second group of beams from the second network device. The first group of resources are configured to the terminal device. A plurality of synchronization and/or reference signals are transmitted, using the first group of beams, on the first group of resources to the terminal device.
