Abstract

Herein is disclosed a wireless communication device comprising two or more antennas; one or more transceivers, configured to process wireless signal for one or more processors received via the two or more antennas; and one or more processors, configured to determine a timing of data transmissions within the wireless signal; determine a timing of intervals between beam selection protocol transmissions in the wireless signal; determine a testing period corresponding to an overlap of one data transmission selected from the data transmissions and one interval of the intervals; and measure a signal quality of the selected data transmission during the testing period using a candidate receive-beam setting from a plurality of predefined receive-beam settings for receiving the wireless signals via the two or more antennas.
