Control apparatus, user equipment, control method, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium

Abstract

A control apparatus that controls beam search processing between dispersed communication apparatus and user equipment performs: instructing to transmit first reference signals using first beams; obtaining first feedback information including a combination of identification information of one or more first beams and received signal strength; if a predetermined number or greater of identification information of different first beams is included in the first feedback information obtained from the user equipment, determining first beams of a number fewer than the predetermined number to use in measuring second reference signals from among first beams of the predetermined number or greater; and reporting a parameter of the second reference signals transmitted using second beams that correspond to the first beam determined to use in measuring and that have a narrower beam width than the first beams.
