1Area of stationary object
If beam measurement and beam management technologies are used to find beams that can achieve effective coverage, then communication coverage is improved, but beam stability deteriorates when terminal devices are mobile
Solution Approach 1:
The terminal device predicts future beam measurement values before actual beam handover is needed. By performing preliminary prediction of beam quality changes based on current measurement values and movement state, the system proactively identifies beams that will become optimal, preventing sudden communication rate drops and reducing frequent beam handovers.
2Reliability
If beam handover is performed frequently to maintain optimal beam quality, then communication rate stability is improved, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The terminal device provides feedback to the network device by reporting both current beam measurement values and predicted future measurement values. This feedback mechanism enables the network device to make informed beam handover decisions based on predicted beam quality changes, achieving stable communication rates without requiring complex frequent handover procedures.
