A method for determining a transmission direction for a communication of a network component of a radio communications network may include: determining a reference transmission direction based on a plurality of predetermined transmission directions that a network component of a radio communications network is configured to transmit at; selecting a plurality of candidate transmission directions in a spatial vicinity of the reference transmission direction, the plurality of candidate transmission directions being a subset of the plurality of predetermined transmission directions; and selecting a transmission direction for a communication of the network component from the reference transmission direction and the plurality of candidate transmission directions based on a selection criterion. 种用于确定用于无线电通信网络的网络组件的通信的传输方向的方法可以包括：基于无线电通信网络的网络组件被配置成以其传输的多个预定传输方向而确定参考传输方向；选择空间上邻近参考传输方向的多个候选传输方向，所述多个候选传输方向是多个预定传输方向的子集；以及基于选择准则而从参考传输方向和多个候选传输方向中选择用于网络组件的通信的传输方向。
