Dual-thread feedback for non-orthogonal channels used in wireless communications systems is described. A first feedback thread may employ transmission strategy (TS) independent feedback and a second feedback thread may employ TS dependent feedback. The first feedback thread may include channel feedback from channel measurements (e.g., channel gain, noise covariance, etc.) and may be fed back periodically. A TS space may be determined that includes combinable TSs for UEs that may be grouped for non-orthogonal techniques, and one or more TS sets may be sent to the UEs. UEs may determine channel quality and/or other channel state information (CSI) for the TSs and report CSI for one or more TSs of the TS sets in a second feedback thread. Scheduling may be performed for transmissions to the UEs based on the feedback in the first and/or second feedback threads.
