Abstract: A method and a device in a node for wireless communications. A first node monitors or drops monitoring a first signal in a first resource block; and transmits a second signal in a second resource block. The second resource block corresponds to a first index; the first resource block is reserved for a HARQ-ACK for a bit block set transmitted in a third resource block; when a first condition set is fulfilled, a spatial relation of the second signal is unrelated to the first index; when the first condition set is unfulfilled, the first index is used for determining the spatial relation of the second signal; the first condition set relates to whether the first signal is conveyed in the first resource block. The method above provides an easy implementation of beamforming in a V2X system, which optimizes gains of beamforming and also prevents complicated signaling interaction.

Abstract: A wireless communication network delivers multi-frequency service to User Equipment (UE). A primary node receives signaling from the UE that indicates secondary nodes along with their frequencies and signal strengths. The primary node selects candidate nodes based on the signal strengths for the secondary nodes. The primary node determines potential intermodulation interference between the primary frequency and the frequencies for the candidate set. The primary node selects a qualifying set from the candidate set based on the potential intermodulation interference. The primary node determines communication performance for the qualifying set and selects a serving set from the qualifying set based on the communication performance. The primary node wirelessly transfers signaling to the UE identifying the serving set and transfers signaling to the serving set identifying the UE. The serving set of secondary access nodes wirelessly transfer user data to the UE over their frequencies responsive to the signaling.
