First Claim
Patent Images
1. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) comprising:
- a processor, the processor configured at least with;
one or more channel state information (CSI) processes, the processor configured to at least;
receive an indication in a CSI request field, the indication indicating at least one of the one or more CSI processes;
generate an aperiodic report corresponding to the at least one of the one or more CSI processes; and
send the report via a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH).

Abstract
Embodiments contemplate methods and systems for determining and communicating channel state information (CSI) for one or more transmission points (or CSI reference signal resources). Embodiments further contemplate determining transmission states may include applying at least one CSI process for channel state information (CSI) reporting. Embodiments also contemplate aperiodic and/or periodic reporting of one or more report types (e.g., rank indicator (RI)) of CSI, perhaps based on one or more reporting modes that may be configured for each of the one or more CSI process.
