Channel quality index feedback reduction for broadband systems
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a computing system configured for wireless communication, a compressed set of channel state information comprising information usable to configure data transmission from a transmitting device to a receiving device over one or more of a plurality of transmission channels, wherein the compressed set of channel state information omits state information for at least one transmission channel of the plurality of transmission channels based on a determination that the state information for the at least one transmission channel did not change or changed less than a threshold amount relative to a previous transmission of state information for the at least one transmission channel;
processing, by the computing system, the compressed set of channel state information to generate a complete set of channel state information;
selecting, by the computing system, an adaptive modulation and coding scheme based on the complete set of channel state information; and
transmitting, by the computing system, data over the plurality of transmission channels based on the selected adaptive modulation and coding scheme.

Abstract
A system and methodology are presented for exploiting channel correlation in time and/or frequency to reduce CQI feedback in wireless communications systems. By compressing CQI feedback at the receiver to reduce redundancy in CQI feedback information that results from the channel correlation, the average feedback rate is reduced. Redundancy in time may be removed from the CQI feedback by monitoring variations of the CQI information in time at the receiver so that CQI information for a given CQI reporting instance is communicated to the transmitter only if it differs from the CQI information for the previous CQI reporting instance. CQI feedback is compressed by performing a discrete cosine transform (DCT) on the CQI data and then communicated to the transmitter through the feedback control channel where it is decoded into the original CQI information and used to generate signal processing information for various sub-carriers.

8. A base station apparatus configured to receive and process channel state information in a wireless communication system comprising a plurality of transmission channels, the base station apparatus comprising:
-
a wireless transceiver; one or more processors; and one or more non-transitory memories having program instructions stored thereon that are executable by the one or more processors to cause the base station apparatus to; receive a set of channel state information corresponding to a subset that is less the than an entirety of the plurality of transmission channels, wherein the subset omits state information for at least one transmission channel of the plurality of transmission channels based on a determination that state information for the at least one transmission channel did not change or changed less than a threshold amount relative to a previous transmission of state information for the at least one transmission channel; determine which of the plurality of transmission channels are not omitted based on received information associated with the set of channel state information; select an adaptive modulation and coding scheme based on the set of channel state information; and transmit one or more data via over the plurality of transmission channels based on the selected adaptive modulation and coding scheme. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)
