Patent attributes
Systems and apparatuses providing history augmented synchronization signal based antenna beam selection are described. History augmented synchronization signal based antenna beam selection of an antenna beam may be based on receive metrics and beam historical information. Receive metrics may include a measured aspect for synchronization signal transmitted via a respective antenna beam. Beam historical information may include information regarding a previous random access channel (RACH) procedure attempt using an antenna beam of the plurality of antenna beams, information regarding physical broadcast channel (PBCH) decode history for an antenna beam of the plurality of antenna beams, information regarding recency of a measurement of an aspect of the synchronization signal corresponding to an antenna beam of the plurality of antenna beams as received when scanning the antenna beam, etc. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.
