  • Communication device having mobility management beam steering for reduced interference
    Patent number: 11722917
    Abstract: A communication device, computer program product, and method mitigate interference during mobility management of antenna beam selection. A controller of the communication device determines a first direction to a first downlink from a base station downlink that is beam steered toward the communication device. The controller determines a second direction to a second downlink from the base station that is beam steered toward a second communication device. The controller determines a scan cone of two or more beam entries oriented generally in the first direction and being at least one of angularly narrowed or directed away from the second direction to avoid receiving the second downlink. The controller configures the RF frontend of the communication device with a reduced codebook based on a subset of the two or more beam entries within the scan cone for mobility management of the communication device.
