DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SYNCHRONOUS BEAM SWITCHING
Devices for and methods of synchronous beam refinement using a beam refinement reference signal (BRRS) are generally described. In one example embodiment, a UE receives BRRS information indicating switching of a Tx beam. The UE then uses this information to switch an associated Rx beam. In some embodiments, timing information is used to match the switching times. In some embodiments, DCI and CSI-RS operations are used to determine switching for the synchronous beam refinement.
