A computer-implemented method for wireless signal transmission and reception for device to device (D2D) communication includes obtaining, by a first electronic device, reference signal beam pattern information associated with multiple beam directions of a second electronic device, where the reference signal beam pattern information is stored in a beam pattern database (BPD) in the first electronic device, receiving or transmitting, between the first and second electronic devices, a plurality of reference signals in accordance with the reference signal beam pattern information, and determining, by the first electronic device, environment information surrounding the first electronic device and the second electronic device based on measurements of the reference signals, the obtained reference signal beam pattern information, and the BPD.

Wireless signal transmission and reception for device to device communication

A computer-implemented method for sidelink beam sweeping includes transmitting, by a first electronic device and to a base station, uplink sounding reference signals (UL-SRSs) on N UL-SRS resources using N transmit beam patterns, where N is an integer greater than 1, receiving, by the first electronic device and from the base station, information associated with sidelink beam management (SL-BM), where the information associated with SL-BM indicates SL resources allocated to the first electronic device and beam pattern indices indicating transmit beam patterns for SL-BM, and transmitting, by the first electronic device and to a second electronic device, one or more sidelink beam management reference signals (SL-BMRSs), based on the received information associated with SL-BM, using one or more of the indicated transmit beam patterns.
