The present invention generally relates to wireless communication, more particularly, relates to recovery from beam failure in a wireless access network where beamforming technique is used in communication between network elements. According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for recovery from beam failure in a wireless access network accessed by a user equipment (UE). The method comprises: at the wireless access network, determining whether the beam failure occurs on the basis of presence of a response from the UE during communicating between the wireless access network and the UE via a first beam; and if it is determined that the beam failure occurs, communicating with the UE via an available beam selected from the first beam and one or more second beams.

Recovery from beam failure

A method for operating a UE includes receiving, by the UE during an initial access sequence, a plurality of first inbound beams each transmitted by a communications controller in a different transmit direction over a first carrier, where the first inbound beams have a different subcarrier frequency range from each other, generating values of a receive metric in accordance with the first inbound beams, selecting one of the first inbound beams in accordance with the receive metric values, transmitting, by the UE, an indication of the selected first inbound beam, and receiving, by the UE, a second inbound beam transmitted by the communications controller in a transmit direction in accordance with the indication of the selected first inbound beam, where the second inbound beam has a second subcarrier frequency range of the first carrier that is different than a first subcarrier frequency range of the selected first inbound beam.

System and method for beam selection using multiple frequencies

The present invention discloses a data transmission method and apparatus. A first access point determines a current working uplink receiving beam, and broadcasts an identifier of the current working uplink receiving beam of the first access point, so that when a first station associated with the first access point determines, according to the identifier of the current working uplink receiving beam of the first access point, that a first transmitting beam at which the first station is currently working is the current working uplink receiving beam of the first access point, the first station performs data transmission with the first access point by using the first transmitting beam. The current working uplink receiving beam of the first access point and a current working uplink receiving beam of a second access point do not overlap in space.

Data transmission method and apparatus

Aspects of this disclosure provide techniques for detecting and recovering from beam-failure events. In some embodiments, motion sensor information generated by motion sensors on a UE is used to detect, predict, and/or recover from a beam failure event that results, or would otherwise result, from movement of the UE. The motion sensor information may be used to adjust a current beam direction used by the UE to transmit or receive a signal, or to determine a recommendation for adjusting a current beam direction of the base station. The motion sensor information may be generated by any sensor that detects a movement of the UE, such as a gyroscope, an accelerometer, a magnetometer, a global positioning system (GPS) sensor, a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) sensor, or any other device that detects a change in position/orientation of the UE.

Device/UE-Oriented Beam Recovery and Maintenance Mechanisms

Apparatus, systems, and methods to implement inter-beam mobility control in MIMO communication systems are described. In one example, apparatus of an evolved Node B (eNB) comprises circuitry to configure a periodic transmit (TX) beamforming process for a user equipment (UE), wherein a plurality of different TX beams are used in a plurality of different beamforming reference signals (BRS), receive, from the UE, a selected TX beam index which identifies a selected TX beam, and schedule subsequent transmissions to the UE on the selected TX beam. Other examples are also disclosed and claimed.

Inter-beam mobility control in mimo communication systems

Apparatuses and methods for maintaining an optimal beam direction in a wireless communication system are provided. The method for operating a receiving node in a wireless communication system includes, determining a first transmission beam is determined as a preferred transmission beam using a plurality of reference signals transmitted by a transmitting node, generating preferred transmission beam information, transmitting the preferred transmission beam information to the transmitting node, receiving transmissions from the transmitting node via the first transmission beam, and determining whether a change of a transmission beam is necessary. When the change of the transmission beam is determined to be necessary, generating a beam change request and transmitting the beam change request to the transmitting node.
