Abstract: A method for managing beam alignment by a user equipment is provided. The method comprises receiving beam width information and base station location information from a base station, calculating a displacement of location of the UE based on location coordinates of the UE, measuring a change in a signal strength of the UE due to the displacement, and determining whether the UE is moving towards or away from the base station using at least one of the beam width information, base station location information, the displacement, and the measured change in the signal strength, determining whether a beam re-alignment is required based on the determination of the movement of UE, and transmitting a realignment request to the base station for a re-aligned beam width and a new transmission beam based on determining that the beam re-alignment is required.

Abstract: The disclosure refers to a method and a base station for communication in a high frequency network are provided. The method includes generating a first beam having a first beamwidth in a first area of a cell, determining a plurality of second beamwidth levels for a plurality of second beams possible in the first beamwidth of the first beam, wherein a second beamwidth associated with each of the plurality of second beams is narrower than the first beamwidth, generating the plurality of second beams having the plurality of determined second beamwidth levels, and transmitting at least one synchronization message to a plurality of user equipments via the first beam and the plurality of second beams.
