Abstract:
Enhanced channel state information (CSI) procedures for full dimension-multiple input, multiple output (FD-MIMO) is discussed in which a number of CSI reference signal (CSI-RS) ports configured for a user equipment (UE) is determined. In response to the CSI-RS ports including both horizontal and vertical ports, the UE may determine a first precoding matrix from a plurality of precoding matrices constructed by a Kronecker product of a horizontal precoding matrix and a vertical precoding matrix. The UE selects a predetermined number of precoding vectors out of the first precoding matrix and generates a wideband precoding matrix, based on the selected predetermined number of precoding vectors. The UE reports one or more CSI reports, wherein the CSI re-ports includes at least one precoding matrix indicator (PMI) for the first precoding matrix and at least an indication of the selection of the predetermined number of precoding vectors.
