Configuring non-zero-power channel state information reference signal (NZP-CSI-RS) may include encoding a channel state information (CSI) configuration communication for transmission to a user equipment (UE) that is in connected mode with both a first transmission and reception point (TRP) associated with a serving cell and a second TRP associated with a neighbor cell. The NZP-CSI-RS configuration communication may establish a plurality of parameters for NZP-CSI-RS in the serving cell and the neighbor cell.
