Abstract

A wireless device transmits one or more capability messages to a base station indicating that the wireless device supports a first number of channel state information processes per bandwidth part of a cell. One or more second messages are received that comprise: first configuration parameters of a first plurality of bandwidth parts of a first cell where the first plurality of bandwidth parts comprising a first bandwidth part; second configuration parameters indicating a plurality of channel state information reference signal resources; and third configuration parameters of a second number of channel state information processes for the first bandwidth part where the second number is smaller than or equal to the first number. First reference signals received via the plurality of channel state information reference signal resources are measured. Channel state information for the second number of channel state information processes are transmitted based on the measuring.

Claims (37)

1. A method comprising:

transmitting, by a wireless device to a base station, one or more capability messages indicating that the wireless device supports a first number of channel state information processes per bandwidth part of a cell;

receiving one or more second messages comprising:

first configuration parameters of a first plurality of bandwidth parts of a first cell, the first plurality of bandwidth parts comprising a first bandwidth part;

second configuration parameters indicating a plurality of channel state information reference signal resources; and

third configuration parameters of a second number of channel state information processes for the first bandwidth part, wherein the second number is smaller than or equal to the first number;

measuring first reference signals received via the plurality of channel state information reference signal resources; and

transmitting channel state information for the second number of channel state information processes based on the measuring.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first number of channel state information processes is a maximum number of channel state information processes.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein:

the one or more second messages indicate uplink resources of an uplink control channel; and

the channel state information is transmitted via the uplink control channel.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving a capability enquiry message, wherein the one or more capability messages are transmitted in response to the receiving the capability enquiry message.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the channel state information is a periodic channel state information.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the first number of channel state information processes is a maximum number of channel state information processes.

7. The method of claim 5 , further comprising receiving a capability enquiry message, wherein the one or more capability messages are transmitted in response to the receiving the capability enquiry message.

8. The method of claim 5 , wherein:

the one or more second messages indicate uplink resources of an uplink control channel; and

the channel state information is transmitted via the uplink control channel.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the channel state information is an aperiodic channel state information.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the first number of channel state information processes is a maximum number of channel state information processes.

11. The method of claim 9 , further comprising receiving a capability enquiry message, wherein the one or more capability messages are transmitted in response to the receiving the capability enquiry message.

12. The method of claim 9 , wherein:

the one or more second messages indicate uplink resources of an uplink control channel; and

the channel state information is transmitted via the uplink control channel.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the channel state information is semi-persistent channel state information.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the first number of channel state information processes is a maximum number of channel state information processes.

15. The method of claim 13 , further comprising receiving a capability enquiry message, wherein the one or more capability messages are transmitted in response to the receiving the capability enquiry message.

16. The method of claim 13 , wherein:

the one or more second messages indicate uplink resources of an uplink control channel; and

the channel state information is transmitted via the uplink control channel.

17. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the one or more second messages indicate uplink resources of an uplink control channel; and

the channel state information is transmitted via the uplink control channel.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the uplink resources are configured on a primary cell.

19. The method of claim 17 , wherein the uplink resources are configured on a secondary cell.

20. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving a downlink control information indicating activation of the first bandwidth part.
