Abstract
A wireless communication system comprising a first network node and a wireless device is provided. The system is adapted to establish communication between the first network node and the wireless device. The device is adapted to obtain information related to a geographic location of the device, to transmit the information related to the geographic location to the network node, and to transmit a Sounding Reference Signal to the node. The node is adapted to receive information related to a geographic location of the device, and to determine an antenna configuration of the network node for communicating with the device via a directive antenna, based on the geographic location of the device. A network node is adapted to communicate with the device by the first network node, via the directive antenna, by means of the determined antenna configuration.
