Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for hybrid scanning to reduce overhead in a beam scanning scheme in a millimeter wave (mmWave) system, and devices supporting same. The method for hybrid scanning in a wireless access system supporting millimeter wave technology, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises the steps of: receiving a synchronization signal to synchronize with a base station; synchronizing with the base station using the synchronization signal; receiving, from the base station, first pilot signals having different configuration patterns according to each transmitting antenna; ray-scanning using the first pilot signals; selecting a candidate beamforming port set through the ray-scanning; generating second pilot signals having different configuration patterns according to each beamforming port included in the candidate beamforming port set; and transmitting, to the base station, the second pilot signals to perform beam scanning with the base station.
