Abstract:
According to some embodiments, a method is performed by a user equipment for reporting channel state information. The user equipment is configured with two or more channel state information reference signal, CSI-RS, resources in a CSI-RS resource set. The method comprises: selecting at least two CSI-RS resources from the CSI-RS resource set, wherein each of the at least two selected CSI-RS resources are associated to a set of spatially multiplexed layers, wherein different sets comprise different layers; determining a preferred precoder matrix for the selected CSI-RS resources; and transmitting a CSI report indicating the selected CSI-RS resources and the preferred precoder matrices. The method may further comprise calculating a channel estimate for the selected CSI-RS resources, and determining a channel quality indicator, CQI, corresponding to a hypothetical transmission from a plurality of effective channels where layers transmitted through the effective channels mutually interfere. The CSI report may indicate the determined CQI for the selected CSI-RS resources.
