Abstract
A distributed multi-antenna system includes a first access point configured to emit first beams to a user equipment device. The first access point is also configured to receive, from the user equipment device, an indication of a first beam selected from the first beams via a beam sweeping procedure. The distributed multi-antenna system also includes a second access point configured to receive, from the user equipment device or the first access point, the indication. The second access point is also configured to emit a second beam of second beams corresponding to the second access point to transmit data to the user equipment device based on the indication and a location of the second access point.
