Abstract:
A method comprises: selecting, from a first number of first receive (RX) beams having a first beam width, a first RX beam to form a first beam-pair with a first transmit (TX) beam from one or more base stations, the selection being based on a first measurement of a first reference signal received by the UE using the first beam-pair; selecting, from a second number of second RX beams having a second beam width, a second RX beam to form a second beam-pair with the first TX beam, the selection being based on a second measurement of a second reference signal received by the UE using the second beam-pair, the second number of second RX beams being smaller than the first number of first RX beams, the second beam width being narrower than the first beam width; and performing a location estimate operation using either the second beam-pair, or a third beam-pair derived from the second beam-pair.
