A method of wireless communication of a base station in a first network, the first network comprising at least an anchor node and the base station that performs a beam sweep in the first network during a base station beam sweep broadcast period within a timing cycle, and a UE served by the base station, the method comprising: obtaining timing information from a second network comprising at least one other base station, the first network being a millimeter wave, mmW, network having a higher carrier frequency than the second network, the timing information comprises an indication of the timing cycle; sending configuration information, to the at least one other base station, the configuration information comprising a timing offset from a start of the timing cycle; synchronizing a timing of the beam sweep in the first network based on the timing information obtained from the second network, wherein synchronizing comprises applying the timing offset to the timing cycle; performing the beam sweep in the first network during the base station beam sweep broadcast period, the beam sweep being a plurality of transmissions of a beam in a plurality of different transmit spatial directions by the base station or a plurality of scans of the beam transmissions in a plurality of different scan spatial directions by the base station; determining a channel quality between the UE and the base station in the first network based on the performed beam sweep; adjusting, based at least in part on the determined channel quality between the UE and the base station in the first network, a number of broadcast periods in the timing cycle for performing the beam sweep in the first network; sending, to the UE, via the at least one other base station in the second network, information indicating the adjusted timing cycle for performing the beam sweep; and performing the beam sweep in the first network in the adjusted timing cycle. obtaining timing information from a second network comprising at least one other base station, the first network being a millimeter wave, mmW, network having a higher carrier frequency than the second network, the timing information comprises an indication of the timing cycle; sending configuration information, to the at least one other base station, the configuration information comprising a timing offset from a start of the timing cycle; synchronizing a timing of the beam sweep in the first network based on the timing information obtained from the second network, wherein synchronizing comprises applying the timing offset to the timing cycle; performing the beam sweep in the first network during the base station beam sweep broadcast period, the beam sweep being a plurality of transmissions of a beam in a plurality of different transmit spatial directions by the base station or a plurality of scans of the beam transmissions in a plurality of different scan spatial directions by the base station; determining a channel quality between the UE and the base station in the first network based on the performed beam sweep; adjusting, based at least in part on the determined channel quality between the UE and the base station in the first network, a number of broadcast periods in the timing cycle for performing the beam sweep in the first network; sending, to the UE, via the at least one other base station in the second network, information indicating the adjusted timing cycle for performing the beam sweep; and performing the beam sweep in the first network in the adjusted timing cycle.
