Abstract: Beamforming monitoring apparatus and method are disclosed. The method, comprises receiving (300) parameter data of radio connections between transceivers of a radio access network, the parameter data comprising transmission direction of the beams used in transmission and quality indicators related to transmitted beams; organising (302) data into one or more layers based on parameter data and connections at a given time resolution; receiving (304) a selection of layers at a given time instant; receiving (306) a selection of a view type; and controlling (308) displaying of the selected layers of the given time instant using the selected view type.
