  • Publication number: 20240195474
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a beamforming solution for FDD MIMO communication. A first device receives a reference signal from a second device in a first channel, and determines a covariance matrix associated with the first channel. The first device determines a set of beamforming vectors from the covariance matrix based on the number of dominant angles of arrival associated with the reference signal and the number of beams associated with the set of beamforming vectors, and performs a transmission to the second device based on the set of beamforming vectors in a second channel. In this way, beamforming vectors can be calculated from the transformed channel covariance matrix with the angular spread and imperfect reciprocity considered.

  • Publication number: 20230283342
    Abstract: Techniques of generating CSI reports include designating at least one of the reports as a reference and the other reports as dependent on the reference. For example, a dependent CSI report may have a differential value of a CSI quantity rather than a raw value of the CSI quantity. Because generally for parameters in a CSI report, the differential quantity has a smaller range of values than the raw values of the CSI quantity, a quantization of the differential value of the CSI quantity will have fewer bits than the raw value; for example, for L1-RSRP, the raw value has 7 bits while the differential value has 4 bits. In another example, a dependent value of a CSI quantity is a flag indicating that the CSI quantity value is located in a reference CSI report.

  • Publication number: 20220329304
    Abstract: Techniques of performing CSI reporting include identifying a cluster of TRPs sharing common information in their CSI and transmitting a complete CSI report to a selected TRP of the cluster while transmitting partial CSIs reports to other TRPs of the cluster. Along these lines, in an example implementation, a UE receives a CSI-RS from a network, with the CSI-RS carrying a plurality of reference symbols from a plurality of TRPs. Based on the plurality of symbols, the UE generates TRP data representing CSI feedback for each of the TRPs. From the CSI feedback, the UE identifies, as a cluster, a subset of the TRPs that share common information within the CSI feedback. The UE then sends first identification data identifying the subset of the TRPs that make up the cluster to the network.
