Abstract:
Devices for and methods of synchronous beam refinement using a beam refinement reference signal (BRRS) are generally described. In one example embodiment, a UE receives BRRS information indicating switching of a Tx beam. The UE then uses this information to switch an associated Rx beam. In some embodiments, timing information is used to match the switching times. In some embodiments, DCI and CSI-RS operations are used to determine switching for the synchronous beam refinement.

Claim (Index 24):
The apparatus of  claim 23  wherein the timing information associated with the switching of the Tx beam to the updated Tx beam as indicated by the BRRS information comprises an Nth frame offset value.
