Abstract
A base station configures beam identifiers for a plurality of transmission beams. The base station configures virtual beam identifiers for the plurality of transmission beams based on the maximum number of transmission beams from the plurality of transmission beams that may spatially overlap one another, and the beam identifiers. The base station allocates resources using the virtual beam identifiers.
