Abstract
This disclosure provides by a method for transmitting a mobility reference signal, MRS, during a mobility measurement session to a wireless device, WD. The method is performed in a radio access network node, RANN. The RANN is configurable to transmit using a set of transmission beams. The method comprises dynamically assigning, a MRS identifier to each candidate transmission beam in a set of candidate transmission beams. The method comprises transmitting control information to the WD, the control information comprising the MRS identifier for each corresponding candidate transmission beam; and transmitting the mobility reference signal, MRS, to the WD in accordance with the transmitted control information.
