    Abstract: Non-zero power channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS) are transmitted only on a subsampled pattern of antennas within an antenna array. Based on the transmitted CSI-RS, channel state information is determined for all antennas within the antenna array by, for example, precoder matrix indicator (PMI) interpolation or channel quality indicator (CQI) compensation. The determination of CSI for all antennas within the antenna array may be made by a user equipment receiving the subsampled CSI-RS or a base station transmitting the subsampled CSI-RS.

    Abstract: A method of operating a network entity includes transmitting, via a first TRP and a second TRP, a first DL RS; receiving from a UE, based on the first DL RS, first CSI; determining, based on the first CSI, a calibrated quadrant; transmitting, via the first TRP and the second TRP, a second DL RS based on the calibrated quadrant; and receiving from the UE, based on the second DL RS, second CSI. The method further includes, for N iterations, determining, based on the (N+1)th CSI, an adjusted calibrated phase; transmitting, via the first TRP and the second TRP, an (N+2)th DL RS based on the adjusted calibrated phase; and receiving from the UE, based on the (N+2)th DL RS, (N+2)th CSI. The method further includes, after the N iterations, determining, based on a most recently received (N+2)th CSI, a converged calibrated phase.

    Abstract: A method of operating a network entity includes receiving, from a UE, via a first TRP and a second TRP, a SRS, and estimating a channel based on the received SRS. The method further includes, for N iterations: transmitting, via the first TRP, a CSI-RS with a first polarization; transmitting, via the second TRP, the CSI-RS with a second polarization and a controlled phase offset; receiving, from the user equipment UE, a PMI report associated with the CSI-RS including co-phasing information between the first polarization and the second polarization; and updating the controlled phase offset, based on the co-phasing information. After the N iterations, the method further includes, based on the controlled phase offset and the co-phasing information, determining a phase mis-match for phase calibration between the first TRP and the second TRP.
