Abstract

A network controller for controlling beamformed signals that are transmitted by a cluster of devices. The network controller is configured to allocate, to each device, a beam index that determines a respective beam reference signal structure to use when transmitting beamformed signals over a sidelink between the devices, and to make the allocation in such a way as to minimise interference between the beamformed signals.
