Abstract
According to certain embodiments, a method in a network node is provided for adaptive initial synchronization beam sweep transmission. The method includes transmitting a plurality of initial synchronization beams with at least two different beam sweep cycles. At least one beam sweep cycle is an exhaustive beam sweep cycle and at least one beam sweep cycle is an optimized beam sweep cycle. The exhaustive beam sweep cycle covers all of a serving area of the cell and the optimized beam sweep cycle covers a subset of the serving area.
