Abstract

Methods and apparatuses for remote electrical tilt (RET) control are disclosed. According to an embodiment, a network entity obtains beam reports indicating beam candidates suitable for serving terminal devices in a serving area of an access network node. The network entity determines a spatial distribution of the beam candidates based on the beam reports. The network entity determines one or more boundaries dividing the beam candidates into a plurality of groups, based on the spatial distribution. The network entity determines control information related to RET for an antenna array of the access network node, based on the one or more boundaries.
