Abstract

A method and a device for performing beam forming are provided. The method includes determining plural obstruction free beam windows (OFBWs). Ranking values are determined for the OFBWs based on a ranking parameter. X OFBWs are selected from the plural OFBWs based on the ranking values that are determined, where X is a natural number determined randomly by a randomizer. One or more beams are formed based on the selected X OFBWs.
