Abstract
A method for communication beam transition in a communication system includes sending beam information on a first communication beam, receiving a beam switch command on the first communication beam, the beam switch command requesting a transition from the first communication beam to a second communication beam, simultaneously sending and receiving information on the first communication beam and the second communication beam, and ceasing sending and receiving information on the first communication beam when transition to the second communication beam is completed.
