Standalone and Non-Standalone Beam Management for 3GPP NR at mmWaves
Standalone and Non-Standalone Beam Management for 3GPP NR at mmWaves
The next generation of cellular networks will exploit mmWave frequencies to dramatically increase the network capacity. Communication at such high frequencies, however, requires directionality to compensate the increased propagation loss. Users and base stations need to align their beams during both initial access and data transmissions to ensure that the …
