Abstract

An electronic device on the user side comprising a processing circuitry configured to report to a network control device a first type of channel state information (CSI) by using a resource for the first type of channel state feedback allocated by the network control device; make a determination that a second type of channel state feedback is required; and notify the network control device of the determination.

Claims (36)

1. An electronic device in a wireless communication system comprising

a processing circuitry configured to

report, to a network control device, a first type of channel state information (CSI) by using a resource for a first type of channel state feedback allocated by the network control device;

make a determination that a second type of channel state feedback is required, the determination being made based on an orthogonality between a communication resource used by the electronic device and a communication resource used by another electronic device; and

notify the network control device of the determination.

2. An electronic device in a wireless communication system comprising

a processing circuitry configured to

allocate a resource for a first type of channel state feedback to a user device;

make a determination that a second type of channel state feedback is required, the determination being made based on an orthogonality between a communication resource used by the user device and a communication resource used by another user device; and

notify the user device of the determination.

3. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the orthogonality is decided based on a scrambling code sequence of demodulation reference signal (DMRS) port used by the electronic device and a scrambling code sequence of DMRS port used by the another electronic device.

4. The electronic device according to claim 3 , wherein the electronic device requests the network control device for information on the scrambling code sequence of DMRS port used by the another electronic device.

5. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the determination is made based on a degradation degree of channel quality of a channel between the electronic device and the network control device.

6. The electronic device according to claim 5 , wherein the degradation degree is indicated by a difference between the channel quality in a single-user communication and the channel quality in a multi-user communication of the electronic device and the network control device.

7. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the notifying is implemented with information indicating category of the second type of channel state feedback.

8. The electronic device according to claim 7 , wherein the information indicating category of the second type of channel state feedback is contained in uplink control information (UCI).

9. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to report, to the network control device, a second type of CSI by using a resource for the second type of channel state feedback allocated by the network control device.

10. The electronic device according to claim 2 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to allocate a resource for the second type of channel state feedback to the electronic device so as to allow the electronic device to report a second type of CSI.

11. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein a communication between the electronic device and the network control device is a part of multi-user multi-input multi-output (MU-MIMO) communication.

12. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the second type of channel state feedback includes any of pre-coding feedback based on linearly combined codebook, feedback based on covariance matrix, and hybrid CSI feedback.

13. An electronic device in a wireless communication system comprising

a processing circuitry configured to

allocate a resource for a first type of channel state feedback to a user device;

receive, from the user device, a notification regarding a determination that a second type of channel state feedback is required, the determination being made based on an orthogonality between a communication resource used by the user device and a communication resource used by another user device;

allocate a resource for the second type of channel state feedback to the user device; and

receive a second type of channel state information (CSI).

14. An electronic device in a wireless communication system comprising

a processing circuitry configured to

report, to a network control device, a first type of channel state information (CSI) by using a resource for a first type of channel state feedback allocated by the network control device;

receive, from the network control device, a notification regarding a determination that a second type of channel state feedback is required, the determination being made based on an orthogonality between a communication resource used by the electronic device and a communication resource used by another electronic device; and

report, to the network control device, a second type of CSI by using a resource for the second type of channel state feedback allocated by the network control device.

15. The electronic device according to claim 13 , wherein the orthogonality is decided based on a scrambling code sequence of demodulation reference signal (DMRS) port used by the user device and a scrambling code sequence of DMRS port used by the another user device.

16. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the determination is made based on a degradation degree of channel quality of a channel between the electronic device and the network control device.

17. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the notification is implemented with information indicating category of the second type of channel state feedback.

18. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the communication between the electronic device and the network control device is a part of multi-user multi-input multi-output (MU-MIMO) communication.

19. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the second type of channel state feedback includes any of pre-coding feedback based on linearly combined codebook, feedback based on covariance matrix, and hybrid CST feedback.
