Abstract
A system and method of receiving a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) is presented. At a user equipment, a first CSI-RS transmitted from a base station is received. In some implementations, the first CSI-RS is transmitted at a first periodicity using a first set of antenna ports. At the user equipment, a second CSI-RS transmitted from the base station is received. In some implementations, the second CSI-RS is transmitted at a second periodicity using a second set of antenna ports. At least one of the first CSI-RS and the second CSI-RS is used to perform channel measurement.

39. A method, comprising:
-
assigning, at a base station, a resource block (RB) group to a set of cells, the base station associated with a serving cell of a user equipment (UE); receiving, from the UE, a measurement report identifying a set of interfering neighbor cells for the UE; in response to determining that the set of interfering neighbor cells and the serving cell are within the set of cells, transmitting configuration information of the RB group to the UE; and muting one or more resource elements (REs) within a data channel transmission to the UE based on the configuration information of the RB group. - View Dependent Claims (40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45)

46. An apparatus, comprising:
-
a memory; and at least one hardware processor communicatively coupled with the memory and configured to; assign, at a base station, a resource block (RB) group to a set of cells, the base station associated with a serving cell of a user equipment (UE); receive, from the UE, a measurement report identifying a set of interfering neighbor cells for the UE; in response to determining that the set of interfering neighbor cells and the serving cell are within the set of cells, transmit configuration information of the RB group to the UE; and mute one or more resource elements (REs) within a data channel transmission to the UE based on the configuration information of the RB group. - View Dependent Claims (47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52)

53. A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing instructions which, when executed, cause a computing device to perform operations comprising:
-
assigning, at a base station, a resource block (RB) group to a set of cells, the base station associated with a serving cell of a user equipment (UE); receiving, from the UE, a measurement report identifying a set of interfering neighbor cells for the UE; in response to determining that the set of interfering neighbor cells and the serving cell are within the set of cells, transmitting configuration information of the RB group to the UE; and muting one or more resource elements (REs) within a data channel transmission to the UE based on the configuration information of the RB group. - View Dependent Claims (54, 55, 56, 57, 58)
