摘要: A method for adapting a beam shape of a beam in a wireless communication system having multiple nodes is disclosed. Each node is provided with an antenna system configured to provide radio coverage in a cell by a cell specific beam. The method comprises: calculating a transmit weight vector for each user to be served by a given cell based on information of spatial channel characteristics for the user to be served by the given cell and long term interference characteristics estimated based on aggregated information of spatial channel characteristics for users that the given cell should avoid interfering with and that are served by other cells; performing phase normalization of the calculated transmit weight vectors; and aggregating all transmit weight vectors to establish a common transmit weight vector used to form the beam shape for the cell specific beam.

摘要: A method for acquiring an indication of a preferred beam of a wireless communication device is disclosed. The method is performed in a network node of a cellular communication network. The network node is adapted to support a plurality of beams of a signal beamforming scheme and to communicate with the wireless communication device using at least one beam of the plurality of beams. The method comprises acquiring a beam power setting of the plurality of beams. The beam power setting comprises a power offset being applied to at least one beam of the plurality of beams, the power offset being relative to a nominal power setting of the plurality of beams. The method also comprises transmitting (to the wireless communication device) a message indicative of the beam power setting, transmitting measurement signals, and receiving (from the wireless communication device) a report indicative of the preferred beam, wherein the preferred beam is determined by the wireless communication device based on the measurement signals and the beam power setting.
