Abstract

Various techniques are provided for determining, by a base station, a beam coverage in a cell, the beam coverage including angle range for an azimuth and an angle range for an elevation, determining, by the base station, an angle quantization step, generating, by the base station, a grid of narrow beams based on the angle range and the angle quantization step, computing, by the base station, a beam index matrix based on the grid of narrow beams, generating, by the base station, a wide beam codebook based on the grid of narrow beams, and transmitting, by the base station, at least one of a CSI-RS resource and a SSB resource using multiple-TX-directions wide beams based on the wide beam codebook.
