摘要:
Providing for a multipoint equalization (MPE) framework for coordinated multipoint (CoMP) transmission in wireless communication is described herein. The disclosed MPE framework involves distributed scheduling decisions for CoMP transmission, reducing complexity of scheduling coordination as compared with centralized scheduling techniques that coordinate scheduling decisions for multiple network base stations. Further, the MPE framework involves distributed computation of CoMP transmission coefficients, relying on a maximum of two backhaul hops to obtain information for the computation, and disseminate the transmission coefficients. The disclosed MPE framework shows substantial gains in various network deployments over conventional CoMP techniques.

Aspects disclosed herein relate to channel and interference estimations in a coordinated multi-point (CoMP) environment. In the disclosed aspects, an eNB may be equipped to signal an identifier indicating a plurality of resource patterns, each associated with a resource pattern group, and each including a first resource element pattern for channel estimation and a second resource element pattern for interference estimation. The UE may be equipped to receive the signaling and perform channel estimation based at least in part on the first resource clement pattern, and interference estimation based at least in part on the second resource pattern generate at least one channel state report based on the channel and interference estimations, and transmit at least one channel state report to an eNB. The eNB may determine one or more resources for use by the UE based on the at least one received channel state report.

Methods and apparatus for enforcing codebook properties (e.g., constant modulus and/or finite alphabet) in adaptive and dual-stage codebooks are described. One example method generally includes receiving multiple feedback aspects of a channel for wireless communications determining multiple codewords based on the multiple feedback aspects, determining a final precoding matrix based on the multiple codewords, enforcing at least one codebook property in at least one of the multiple codewords or the final precoding matrix, applying the final precoding matrix to a plurality of spatial streams to form precoded spatial streams, and transmitting the precoded spatial streams. For certain aspects, enforcing the at least one codebook property includes quantizing elements in each of the multiple codewords and/or the final precoding matrix to the nearest value in a finite alphabet or to increase a performance metric.

An apparatus and method for providing encoded information pertaining to a user-specific reference signal associated with a user equipment in a multiple access wireless communication system are provided. The encoded information jointly indicates a rank of transmission together with at least one parameter relating to the user-specific reference signal, such as a set of antenna ports and a user-specific reference signal pattern. The encoded information is transmitted in a downlink control channel to reduce overhead in the channel.

Techniques for reporting channel state information (CSI) based on scalable channel feedback are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive data transmission from one or more cells among a plurality of cells and may report CSI for each of the plurality of cells. For scalable channel feedback, the UE may report CSI with different granularity for different cells. The granularity of feedback for each cell may be selected based on the quality of a communication channel between the cell and the UE, which may be determined based on a long-term channel gain for the cell. The granularity of feedback may be defined by a subband size, a reporting interval, granularity of quantization of CSI, etc. The UE may report CSI for each cell based on the granularity of feedback for the cell. The UE may receive data transmission sent by at least one cell based on the reported CSI.

In macro/RRH setups, channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS) and demodulation reference signals (DM-RS) may be used to decouple control and data transmission. Data transmission (e.g. for LTE Rel 10 and beyond) may be based on CSI-RS and DM-RS, while control may be received from a different set of cells or TxPs via CRS. Certain aspects of the present disclosure introduce a reporting framework, in which configuration of data-serving cells/TxPs may be carried out based on CSI-RS. In certain aspects, a new concept of CSI-RS groups, i.e., a set of CSI-RS ports that a UE considers as one group for precoding matrix indicator (PMI)/channel quality indicator (CQI)/rank indicator (RI) reporting, may be defined.

Aspects disclosed herein relate to channel and interference estimations in a multiple transmission point environment including an eNB and RRHs. In the disclosed aspects, one or more transmission points can signal to a UE to measure channel state conditions based on a first and a second resource pattern. The UE may receive the signaling and perform interference estimation based at least in part on the first resource pattern, and channel estimation based at least in part on the second resource pattern. The UE may generate a channel state report based on the interference and channel estimations, and transmit the channel state report to a transmission point. The eNB may employ the received channel state report in scheduling one or more resources for use by the UE, and may select or adjust network traffic on the first and the second resource pattern, to affect the resulting channel and interference estimation.
