Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a beam selection method and apparatus and a communication system. The method includes: a base station configures user equipment (UE) with measure resources, each measure resource corresponding to one beam: and selects a beam used for performing 3-dimensional multiple input multiple output (3D MIMO) transmission according to a measurement result reported by the UE. With the method of the embodiments of the present disclosure, measurement of the UE end is used to optimize beam selection, thereby improving accuracy of beam-forming at the base station end.
