Abstract:
A group TRP beams for a given UE beam is formed by adding to the group of TRP beams any TRP beam for which the path gain meets a threshold. That is, grouping TRP beams that have “good enough” path gain to a certain UE beam in the same group. An advantage of forming a group TRP beams for a given UE beam by including in the TRP beam group any TRP beam for which the path gain meets a threshold is that, in many scenarios, there is a greater probability that there will be more usable TRP beams included in the group. This feature can be useful during multi-user scheduling at the TRP.
