Publication number: 20240154674Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for allocating channel state information (CSI) processing unit (CPU) for user equipment (UE) initiated CSI. For example, the UE may receive an indication from a network entity (e.g., a base station or gNB) configuring the UE with a number of one or more CPUs allowed to be occupied for UE-initiated CSI feedback. The UE uses the at least one of the CPUs to calculate UE-initiated CSI feedback. The UE transmits at least one report including the UE-initiated CSI feedback if one or more conditions are met, such as when a mismatch between a CSI metric for a scheduled physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) and a CSI metric calculated as part of the UE-initiated CSI feedback is equal to or exceeding a threshold value.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 7, 2022Publication date: May 9, 2024Inventors: Kangqi LIU, Chenxi HAO, Yu ZHANG, Fang YUAN, Liangming WU, Chao WEI, Min HUANG, Qiaoyu LI, Hao XU
