Abstract

Channel state information (CSI) reporting is described. CSI configuration information for a plurality of cells, and information requesting an aperiodic CSI report for a first cell are received. A periodic CSI report for a second cell different from the first cell with the aperiodic CSI report for the first cell in a corresponding subframe is transmitted. If a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) and a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) are transmitted in the corresponding subframe simultaneously, the periodic CSI report for the second cell is transmitted via the PUCCH and the aperiodic CSI report for the first cell is transmitted via the PUSCH in the corresponding subframe. Otherwise, the periodic CSI report for the second cell is piggybacked on the PUSCH and the periodic CSI report for the second cell and the aperiodic CSI report for the first cell are transmitted via the PUSCH in the corresponding subframe.

Claims (14)

1. A method for performing channel state information (CSI) reporting in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving CSI configuration information for a plurality of cells, wherein the CSI configuration information is used to perform a periodic CSI report for each cell;

receiving information requesting an aperiodic CSI report for a first cell; and

transmitting a periodic CSI report for a second cell different from the first cell with the aperiodic CSI report for the first cell in a corresponding subframe,

wherein, if a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) and a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) are transmitted in the corresponding subframe simultaneously, the periodic CSI report for the second cell is transmitted via the PUCCH and the aperiodic CSI report for the first cell is transmitted via the PUSCH in the corresponding subframe, and

wherein, if the PUCCH and the PUSCH are not transmitted in the corresponding subframe simultaneously, the periodic CSI report for the second cell is piggybacked on the PUSCH and the periodic CSI report for the second cell and the aperiodic CSI report for the first cell are transmitted via the PUSCH in the corresponding subframe.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the periodic CSI report for the second cell having the highest priority among a plurality of periodic CSI is selected using a content priority, a cell priority, or a combination thereof.

3. A communication device configured to perform channel state information (CSI) reporting in a wireless communication system, the communication device comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) unit; and

a processor,

wherein the processor is configured to receive CSI configuration information for a plurality of cells, to receive information requesting an aperiodic CSI report for a first cell, and to transmit a periodic CSI report for a second cell different from the first cell with the aperiodic CSI report for the first cell in a corresponding subframe,

wherein, if a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) and a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) are transmitted in the corresponding subframe simultaneously, the periodic CSI report for the second cell is transmitted via the PUCCH and the aperiodic CSI report for the first cell is transmitted via the PUSCH in the corresponding subframe, and

wherein, if the PUCCH and the PUSCH are not transmitted in the corresponding subframe simultaneously, the periodic CSI report for the second cell is piggybacked on the PUSCH and the periodic CSI report for the second cell and the aperiodic CSI report for the first cell are transmitted via the PUSCH in the corresponding subframe.

4. The communication device of claim 3 , wherein the periodic CSI report for the second cell having the highest priority among a plurality of periodic CSI reports is selected using a content priority, a cell priority, or a combination thereof.
