CPC H04W 4/029 (2018.02) [G01S 5/0273 (2013.01)] | 18 Claims |
1. An apparatus, comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory comprising computer program code,
the at least one memory and computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus at least to
receive, from a user equipment, at least one of a number of supported receive and transmit panels that can be simultaneously activated and a panel switch time; and
compute a UE-based latency lag using the number of supported receiver and transmitter panels that can be simultaneously activated and the panel switch time, wherein the at least one memory and computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus at least to:
select a user equipment behaviour for mode switching between a first mode and a second mode based at least on the UE-based latency lag and a tolerable latency; and
transmit at least one information relating to the mode selection to the user equipment,
wherein the first mode comprises UE-based beam sweeping in which the user equipment determines how the receive beams should be sweeped within a measurement gap occasion, and
wherein the second mode comprises prioritization-based beam sweeping in which the user equipment prioritizes, during a measurement gap occasion, an indicated subset of receive beams.
