Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for millimeter wave (mmW) beam acquisition are disclosed. An apparatus may include a processor and a transceiver configured to receive configuration information from a first network node using a first radio access technology (RAT). The configuration information may include an index associated with a beam of a second network node and timing information corresponding to the first RAT. The second network node may use a second RAT. The apparatus may be further configured to transmit a measurement report to the first network node that includes a measurement of the beam and index associated with the beam of the second network node.
