Abstract

See full text

A method in a wireless communication network for assisting a user equipment to receive signals from a target access node. The wireless communication network comprises the target access node, the user equipment and a serving access node serving the user equipment. The serving access node sends information about time instances to the user equipment. The time instances are scheduled for sending signals from the target access node in a beam direction towards the user equipments. The time instances may be determined in the target access node based on its own position and a position of the user equipment and/or a beam direction of the serving access node. The time instances may also be determined in the serving access node based on its own position and a schedule of the target access node on beam directions versus transmission times. The user equipment receives signals from the target access node during the time instances indicated in the received information. In this way, leaving more time for the user equipment to receive data or signal from the serving access node. As a result, the throughput of the wireless communication network is increased and improved.
