Patent ID: 11451277

Abstract:
Systems and methods of controlling a component of a network node in a wireless communication system are presented herein. In one exemplary embodiment, a method by a network node (101, 200, 300, 560, 1400, 1721, 1741) comprises obtaining (401a) a current location (140) of a wireless device (119, 510) that is determined from measurements reported by the wireless device of a set of beam reference signals (121-126) transmitted by the network node or measurements performed by the network node of a signal (127) transmitted by the wireless device that is spatially related (129) to the corresponding beam reference signal received by the wireless device. Also, the method includes controlling (415a) a component (113-115) of the network node that enables or disables a transmission on one or more beams (121-126) of at least one beam reference signal or adjusts a transmission power of a transmission on the one or more beams of at least one beam reference signal or wireless device-specific data signal, based on a set of power trace trajectories (141-144) of the wireless device.
