Electronic device, communication method and storage medium in wireless communication system to make an optimum compromise between the accuracy of the channel state information and the overhead

1. An electronic device for a base station in a wireless communication system comprising:

a processing circuitry configured to

indicate a user equipment to report a first type of channel statement information (CSI), wherein the base station serves the user equipment in a way of single-user Multiple Input Multiple Output (SU-MIMO);

determine that a second type of channel statement information is required in a case that the base station changes the way serving the user equipment from SU-MIMO to multi-user Multiple Input Multiple Output (MU-MIMO); and

notify the user equipment to report the second type of channel statement information,

wherein a granularity of the second type of channel statement information is higher than that of the first type of channel statement information.

2. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the second type of channel statement information comprises information about amplitude and phase.

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

4. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the determination is made based on an orthogonality between a communication resource used by the user equipment and a communication resource used by another MU-MIMO user equipment.

5. The electronic device according to claim 4 , wherein the orthogonality is decided based on a scrambling code sequence of demodulation reference signal (DMRS) port used by the user equipment and a scrambling code sequence of DMRS port used by the other MU-MIMO user equipment.

6. 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 user equipment and the electronic device caused by the base station changing the way serving the user equipment from of SU-MIMO to MU-MIMO.

7. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to indicate the user equipment to report the first type of channel statement information (CSI), based on a reference signal for the first type of channel statement information.

8. An electronic device for a user equipment in a wireless communication system comprising:

a processing circuitry configured to

receive, from a base station, an indication to report a first type of channel statement information (CSI);

report, to a base station, the first type of channel statement information;

receive, from the base station, a notification that a second type of channel statement information is required; and

report, to the base station, the second type of channel statement information, wherein a granularity of the second type of channel statement information is higher than that of the first type of channel statement information.

9. The electronic device according to claim 8 , wherein the second type of channel statement information comprises information about amplitude and phase.

10. The electronic device according to claim 8 , wherein the second type of channel statement information includes any of pre-coding feedback based on linearly combined codebook, feedback based on covariance matrix, and hybrid CSI feedback.

11. The electronic device according to claim 8 , wherein the determination is made based on an orthogonality between a communication resource used by the user equipment and a communication resource used by another MU-MIMO user equipment.

12. The electronic device according to claim 11 , wherein the orthogonality is decided based on a scrambling code sequence of demodulation reference signal (DMRS) port used by the user equipment and a scrambling code sequence of DMRS port used by the other MU-MIMO user equipment.

13. The electronic device according to claim 8 , wherein the determination is made based on a degradation degree of channel quality of a channel between the user equipment and the electronic device caused by the base station changing the way serving the user equipment from of SU-MIMO to MU-MIMO.

14. The electronic device according to claim 8 , wherein the processing circuitry is configured to receive, from the base station, the indication to report the first type of channel statement information (CSI) based on a reference signal for the first type of channel statement information.
