Abstract: Configuration of measurement requirements on cells and beams in NR is made more efficient by, in a user equipment, UE, receiving, information from a network node, which information indicates: a first number K of beams to be measured by the UE, and a second number L of cells in which the UE is required to measure the first number K of beams. The UE then carries out measurements using the received information; and performs at least one operational task based on a result of the measurements.

Abstract: An aspect of an embodiment provides a method for controlling channel quality monitoring in a wireless communication system that utilises beamforming, whereby a plurality of signals are transmitted from a base station to a user equipment and the quality of a received signal is measured at the user equipment for each of the plurality of signals, each of the plurality of signals being transmitted by the base station utilising a different frequency sub-band and beam pairing. The method includes: identifying plural frequency sub-band and beam pairings for which the received signal quality is correlated; and, for each frequency sub-band and beam pairing within a group of plural frequency sub-band and beam pairings for which the received signal quality is correlated, evaluating the periodicity of a received signal quality analysis process, and determining whether or not to adjust the periodicity.
