Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021024016A1] Apparatuses and methods are disclosed relating a WD-specific beam cell. In one embodiment, a method implemented in a network node includes obtaining angular information using a first radio access technology, RAT, the angular information being associated with a wireless device, WD, the first RAT supporting a first coverage area and a first data rate for the WD. A beam to be used by a second RAT to support a second coverage area and a second data rate for the WD is determined, the beam being determined for the second RAT being based at least in part on the angular information obtained from the first RAT, the second coverage area being narrower than the first coverage area and the second data rate being higher than the first data rate. A handover of the WD from the first RAT to the second RAT is undertaken.
