METHODS, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAMS FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS

Abstract: a quasi-colocation relation is determined at a first user equipment server by a network node in a wireless communication network by: discovering, using sidelink communications, a nearby second user equipment; negotiating at least one common reference signal with the second user equipment; determining, using the at least one common reference signal, a first estimate of at least one large-scale property of a first physical channel; receiving, from the second user equipment, at least a second estimate of said at least one large-scale property of a second physical channel; determining a quasi-colocation relation by comparing the first estimate and the second estimate; and notifying a network node of a quasi-colocation relation between the first user equipment and the second user equipment.
