Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for selecting beams. A method includes determining, based on a channel condition, whether to use an adaptive selection method or a cycling selection method to select a subset of a plurality of beams for a beam measurement; based on the channel condition being a first channel condition, using the adaptive selection method to select the subset of beams; and based on the channel condition being a second channel condition, using the cycling selection method to select the subset of beams. The method further includes performing the beam measurement on the selected subset of beams, generating beam measurement information based on the beam measurement on the selected subset of beams, and determining one or more of the plurality of beams to use for a wireless communication based on the beam measurement information.
