Abstract:
Technologies described herein provide mechanisms and formats to accomplish the beam switching. In one implementation, least one frame structure for both uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) beam switching is provided. The UL beam switching and refinement may rely on 5G Physical Random Access Channel (xPRACH) or 5G Sounding Reference Signal (xSRS). The DL beam switching and refinement may be done based on a beam refinement reference signal (BRRS). In some embodiments, to accomplish the both UL and DL beam switching and refinement in one subframe, the BRRS and xPRACH or xSRS may be located in one subframe.

Claim (Index 22):
At least one non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions that when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to:\n identify at least one 5G physical random access channel (xPRACH) symbol or the at least one 5G sounding reference signal (xSRS) symbol within a beam refinement reference signal (BRRS) subframe; and refine an uplink UL receiving (Rx) beam based on the at least one xPRACH symbol or the at least one xSRS symbol.
