Channel Feedback for Vertical and Full-Dimensional Beamforming
First Claim
1. A method implemented in a base station used in a wireless communications system where different antenna arrays are employed for transmissions to different co-scheduled users in a cell, the method comprising:
- configuring multiple channel state information (CSI) processes for a user equipment (UE); and
configuring, for the UE, a plurality of non-zero power (NZP) CSI reference signal (RS) resources, each of which is associated with an antenna array.
