Abstract

A network node () identifies radio beams () that are affected by periodic fading at a User Equipment (UE) () and penalizes the identified beams () with respect to a serving-beam selection procedure that is used to select a serving radio beam () for the UE (). For example, among a set () of radio beams () that are candidates for serving the UE (), the serving-beam selection procedure selects one or more of the candidate beams () according to rankings determined from radio-signal measurements reported by the UE () or from measurements on Sounding Reference Signals (SRS) transmitted by the UE (). In this context, penalizing a beam () means discounting its ranking for purposes of considering it within the beam-selection procedure.
