CSI reporting for multiple TRP transmission/panel
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, devices and apparatuses of channel state information (CSI) reporting for multiple reception point (TRP) transmission. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method may include transmitting a first CSI report on a first TRP of multiple TRPs serving a terminal device for a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) resource set for CSI acquisition. The method may further include transmitting a second CSI report on a second TRP of the multiple TRPs serving the terminal device for the CSI-RS resource set. With embodiments of the present disclosure, it is possible to support CSI reporting for multiple TRP transmission.
1. A method performed by a terminal device, the method comprising:
receiving, from a network device, a configuration for a Channel State Information (CSI) report; and
transmitting, to the network device, the CSI report, wherein the CSI report comprises a first rank indication (RI) and a second RI, the first RI is associated to a first channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) resource subset of a CSI-RS resource set, the second RI is associated to a second CSI-RS resource subset of the CSI-RS resource set, and the first RI and the second RI are reported with a combination value corresponding to one of {(1,1), (1,2), (2,1), (2,2)},
wherein the CSI report further comprises a first precoding matrix indicator (PMI) associated with the first CSI-RS resource subset and a second PMI associated with the second CSI-RS resource set.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the CSI report further comprises a first layer indication (LI) associated with the first CSI-RS resource subset and a second LI associated with the second CSI-RS resource set.
3. A terminal device, comprising:
a transceiver, and
a processor, configured to perform or control the transceiver to perform the method of claim 1 .
4. A method performed by a network device, the method comprising:
transmitting, to a terminal device, a configuration for a Channel State Information (CSI) report; and
receiving, from the terminal device, the CSI report, wherein the CSI report comprises a first rank indication (RI) and a second RI, the first RI is associated to a first channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) resource subset of a CSI-RS resource set, the second RI is associated to a second CSI-RS resource subset of the CSI-RS resource set, and the first RI and the second RI are reported with a combination value corresponding to one of {(1,1), (1,2), (2,1), (2,2)},
wherein the CSI report further comprises a first precoding matrix indicator (PMI) associated with the first CSI-RS resource subset and a second PMI associated with the second CSI-RS resource set.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the CSI report further comprises a first layer indication (LI) associated with the first CSI-RS resource subset and a second LI associated with the second CSI-RS resource set.
