Examples provide a determination circuit and apparatus, a mobile transceiver, a communication device, a method for determining, a computer program and a storage to determine a spatial transmission or reception mode. The determination circuit (10) is configured to determine a spatial transmission or reception mode for a mobile transceiver (100). The determination circuit (10) comprises at least one sensor (12) configured to sense attenuating object information, and a control module (14) configured to determine the spatial transmission or reception mode based on the sensed attenuating object information. The control module (14) is configured to control the spatial transmission or reception mode of the mobile transceiver (100).
