Abstract
An apparatus and method for controlling and optimizing the broadcast beam for base stations (BS) using user equipment (UE) measurements with machine learning is provided. The apparatus and method is configured to select a first beam for each BS, send selected beams for each BS, receive measurement information of a first beam from UEs via BSs, preprocess the measurement results, use a neural network or a table for each BS to give a score for each broadcast beam in the beam pool, select a second beam with the highest score for each BS either from a neural network or a table, train the neural network for broadcast beam optimization offline based on a UE distribution pattern and ray-tracing data, identify typical UE distribution patterns based on AI classification algorithms and UE history measurement and location information, and create scenario-specific ray-tracing data based on typical UE distribution patterns.
