Abstract:
An example system may comprise a millimeter wave (mmWave) transmitting device including instructions executable to: identify a plurality of mmWave signal transmission paths from the mmWave transmitting device to a receiving device; collect a channel measurement for each beam of a first portion of beams available at the mmWave transmitting device at each signal transmission path of the plurality of mmWave signal transmission paths; determine a plurality of properties of each signal transmission path of the plurality of mmWave signal transmission paths utilizing the corresponding channel measurements; predict, based on the plurality of properties, a signal metric for a second portion of the beams; and select, based on the predicted signal metric, a beam from the beams to be utilized to transmit a signal to the receiving device.

Claim (Index 15):
A method comprising:\n identifying, by a network device, a plurality of millimeter Wave (mmWave) signal transmission paths from a mmWave transmitting device to a mobile receiving device; collecting, by the network device, a channel measurement for each beam of a first portion of beams available at the mmWave transmitting device at each signal transmission path of the plurality of mmWave signal transmission paths; extracting, by the network device, from the channel measurement for each beam of the first portion of the beams, a path gain, a path phase, an azimuth direction, and an elevation direction of each signal transmission path of the plurality of mmWave signal transmission paths; predicting, by the network device, a channel measurement for each beam of a remaining portion of the beams based on the path gain, the path phase, the azimuth direction, and the elevation direction of each signal transmission path of the plurality of mmWave signal transmission paths; selecting, by the network device, a particular beam of the beams to transmit signals to the mobile receiving device based on a comparison of the predicted channel measurement for the particular beam against the path gain, the path phase, the azimuth direction, and the elevation direction of each signal transmission path of the plurality of mmWave signal transmission paths; and transmit, by the network device, signals to the mobile receiving device using the particular beam.
