Abstract
This application describes systems and processes for sensor-assisted antenna and beam selection for wireless networks. The systems and processes are configured to detect out of coverage (OoC) scenarios and perform beam management in response to detecting the OoC scenario. The systems and methods are configured to perform beam management during baseband interruption scenarios. In each scenario, the device (e.g., user equipment UE) is configured to determine whether the UE is static or mobile.
