An exemplary method provides for a user equipment (UE) receiving a first reference signal (RS) that was transmitted by a base station using a first transmit beam. The UE performs a first RS measurement with respect to the received first RS, producing a first measurement result. The UE receives a second RS that was transmitted by the base station using the first transmit beam. The UE performs a second RS measurement with respect to the received second RS, producing a second measurement result. The UE determines that a condition is satisfied based on determining that the base station has transmitted to the UE a measurement result filtering indicator indicating that the UE may filter its first and second measurement results. The UE derives a filtered measurement result based on the first measurement result and the second measurement result, and selects a beam based on the filtered measurement result.
