Original Abstract Submitted
aspects of the present disclosure relate to signaling between network entities to mitigate, through management of phase shifter or amplitude controller precision, increased interference applied to a network node during uplink beamforming resulting from low phase shift or amplitude control precision. a ue transmits first uplink data in a first beam using a phase shifter or an amplitude controller configured with a first bit precision. the ue receives a message from a network entity indicating to change the first bit precision to a different, second bit precision in response to the first beam interfering with downlink communications from or to a network node. the ue afterwards transmits second uplink data in a second beam using the phase shifter or the amplitude controller reconfigured with the second bit precision. thus, interference from lower precision phase shifters or amplitude controllers may be avoided.
