Beam alignment and beam tracking in vehicle-to-vehicle communications

In some aspects, there is provided a method. The method may include selecting a first antenna coupled to a first transceiver at a first vehicle; determining a configuration of a first beam pattern emanated by the first antenna; and reconfiguring, based on the configuration of the first beam pattern and a beam tracking packet, the first antenna to provide a beam tracking of the first beam pattern. The first beam pattern may be associated with a wireless communication link to an object proximate to the first vehicle, which may be a second vehicle or a stationary object. Reconfiguring the first antenna may be further based on a steering angle associated with the first antenna and a distance between the first vehicle and the object proximate to the first vehicle. A rate of reconfiguring the first antenna may be based on a location of the first antenna, the configuration of the first beam pattern, a velocity of the first vehicle relative to the object proximate to the first vehicle, and an orientation of the first antenna. Related apparatuses and non-transitory computer-readable storage media are also disclosed.
