Original Abstract Submitted
Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to spatial pattern adaptation. An apparatus determines, based at least on a spatial pattern switching between at least two spatial patterns of a network device, one or more reference signal, RS, resources or RS occurrences from a plurality of RS resources or RS occurrences. The apparatus transmits, to the network device, at least one report comprising one or more measurements based at least on the one or more RS resources or RS occurrences. In this way, channel and interference measurement performance can be adapted to the dynamic switching of antennal or spatial pattern. Both the UE and the gNB have a common knowledge of which resources are used by the UE for deriving channel and interference measurement.
