Apparatuses, methods and computer programs are described including, receiving user equipment downlink power measurements from one or more base stations of a communication system, wherein the one or more base stations are configured to provide a plurality of user equipment downlink power measurements for user equipment in communication with a respective base station of the one or more base stations; determining inter-beam interference for multiple directive beams of the or each base station based on the user equipment download power measurements; and assigning one or more beams to one or more clusters such that, for all beams within a cluster, inter-beam interference is below a threshold, wherein beams within a cluster share time and/or frequency resources.
