Abstract
A method and apparatus in a wireless communication device is provided. A reference signal is received from a network entity, and a default set of individual beams is defined, each of the beams having an associated direction. A compression matrix is determined, and an indication of the determined compression matrix is sent to the network entity. The compression matrix is applied to the default set of individual beams resulting in a new set of composite beams, where at least one of the composite beams includes a combination of multiple individual beams from the default set, and where the multiple individual beams included in the at least one of the composite beams each extend in a different direction. A set of beam weighting values is determined, and the determined set of beam weighting values is sent to the network entity.
