1. An apparatus for a communications device, the apparatus comprising at least one processor; and
at least one non-transitory memory storing instructions, that when executed by the at least one processor cause the apparatus to:
determine one or more parameters for one or more downlink signals received with a plurality of antenna arrangements of a set of antenna arrangements;
determine using said determined one or more parameters a subset of said set of antenna arrangements; and
cause the communications device to transmit to an access point using the subset of said set of antenna arrangements, the subset of said set of antenna arrangements being selected based on the determined one or more parameters.
