Abstract:
Apparatuses, methods, and systems for control of antenna steering of a wireless device, are disclosed. One method includes selecting beamforming direction settings of a multiple antenna array of a radio, retrieving spatial relationships between each of different beamforming directions, receiving, by the radio, a wireless signal from a base station and measuring signal metrics of the wireless signal, sensing motion of the wireless device, identifying a wireless connection direction for establishing a wireless connection with the base station based on the signal metrics, the plurality of beamforming direction settings used while receiving the wireless signal, and an orientation of the wireless device determined based on the sensed motion of the wireless device, and selecting a one of the plurality of beamforming direction settings for communicating with the base station based on the wireless connection direction, a beamforming setting that corresponds with the wireless connection.
