Abstract
The present disclosure provides an access node configured for determining at least one beamforming parameter for communication between the access node and a user node. The access node including: a first-band receiver configured to receive at least one first signal from said user node on a first frequency band; a processor and a non-transitory computer-readable medium including computer-executable instructions executed by the processor to perform, on the access node, determining at least one first beamforming parameter based on said received first signal; and a second-band transmitter configured to send, with a transmit beam that is configured based on said determined first beamforming parameter, on a second frequency band at least one second signal to said user node. The first frequency band includes lower frequencies than the second frequency band.
