Coordinated channel state information reporting

1. An apparatus, comprising:

a processor configured to cause a first wireless device to:

establish a wireless link with a cellular base station;

determine application data needs for the first wireless device;

determine to coordinate channel state information reporting with a second wireless device, wherein determining to coordinate channel state information reporting with the second wireless device is based at least in part on the application data needs for the first wireless device;

exchange information with the second wireless device via a sidelink wireless link; and

provide channel state information for the first wireless device to the cellular base station, wherein the channel state information for the first wireless device is determined based at least in part on the information exchanged with the second wireless device via the sidelink wireless link.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to cause the first wireless device to:

select an analog beam to report in the channel state information for the first wireless device based at least in part on the information exchanged with the second wireless device via the sidelink wireless link.

3. The apparatus of claim 2 ,

wherein the analog beam to report in the channel state information is selected to be a same analog beam as the second wireless device reports to the cellular base station in channel state information for the second wireless device.

4. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to cause the first wireless device to:

select a set of precoding vectors to report in the channel state information for the first wireless device based at least in part on the information exchanged with the second wireless device via the sidelink wireless link.

5. The apparatus of claim 4 ,

wherein the set of precoding vectors to report in the channel state information are selected to have low correlation values with a set of precoding vectors the second wireless device reports to the cellular base station in channel state information for the second wireless device.

6. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to cause the first wireless device to:

determine a battery reserve level for the first wireless device,

wherein determining to coordinate channel state information reporting with the second wireless device is based at least in part on the battery reserve level for the first wireless device.

7. A first wireless device, comprising:

an antenna;

a radio operably coupled to the antenna; and

a processor operably coupled to the radio;

wherein the first wireless device is configured to:

determine to coordinate channel state information reporting with a second wireless device;

exchange information with the second wireless device via a sidelink wireless link; and

provide channel state information for the first wireless device to a cellular base station, wherein the channel state information for the first wireless device is determined based at least in part on the information exchanged with the second wireless device via the sidelink wireless link, wherein one or more of an analog beam or one or more precoding vectors included in the channel state information for the first wireless device are determined based at least in part on the information exchanged with the second wireless device via the sidelink wireless link.

8. The first wireless device of claim 7 ,

wherein the first wireless device is configured to determine to coordinate channel state information reporting with the second wireless device based on one or more of:

application data needs for one or more of the first wireless device or the second wireless device; or

a battery reserve level for one or more of the first wireless device or the second wireless device.

9. The first wireless device of claim 7 , wherein the first wireless device is further configured to:

receive an indication from the cellular base station that the first wireless device can coordinate channel state information reporting with the second wireless device.

10. The first wireless device of claim 7 , wherein the first wireless device is further configured to:

provide an indication to the cellular base station that the channel state information for the first wireless device is determined in coordination with the second wireless device.

11. The first wireless device of claim 7 , wherein the first wireless device is further configured to:

provide second channel state information for the first wireless device to the cellular base station, wherein the second channel state information for the first wireless device is determined for the first wireless device independently from the second wireless device.

12. The first wireless device of claim 7 , wherein the first wireless device is further configured to:

receive a scheduling indication from the cellular base station, wherein the scheduling indication includes information indicating that the second wireless device is co-scheduled with the first wireless device.

13. The first wireless device of claim 7 , wherein the sidelink wireless link includes one of:

a cellular sidelink wireless link;

a Wi-fi wireless link; or

a Bluetooth wireless link.

14. A cellular base station, comprising:

an antenna;

a radio operably coupled to the antenna; and

a processor operably coupled to the radio;

wherein the cellular base station is configured to:

establish a wireless link with a first wireless device;

receive first channel state information from the first wireless device, wherein the first channel state information includes channel state information for the first wireless device that is generated in coordination with a second wireless device, wherein the first channel state information includes information identifying the second wireless device;

schedule a communication with the first wireless device during a first transmission time interval, wherein a communication with the second wireless device is also scheduled during the first transmission time interval; and

provide a scheduling indication for the communication with the first wireless device during the first transmission time interval to the first wireless device, wherein the scheduling indication includes information indicating that the second wireless device is also scheduled during the first transmission time interval.

15. The cellular base station of claim 14 ,

wherein the first channel state information further includes channel state information for the first wireless device that is generated without coordination with the second wireless device.

16. The cellular base station of claim 14 , wherein the cellular base station is further configured to:

provide an channel state information request to the first wireless device, wherein the channel state information request includes information identifying the second wireless device.

17. The cellular base station of claim 16 ,

wherein the channel state information request includes a rank restriction for coordinated channel state information reporting.
