Abstract

Certains aspects de la présente invention concernent des techniques d'omission de composants de rétroaction d'informations d'état de canal. Un procédé donné à titre d'exemple comprend de manière générale les étapes consistant à obtenir une ressource de liaison montante (UL) à utiliser pour rapporter des informations d'état de canal (CSI) ; recevoir un signal de référence de CSI (CSI-RS) ; déterminer une pluralité de composants de rétroaction sur la base du CSI-RS, au moins l'un des composants de rétroaction comprenant un ou plusieurs faisceaux spatiaux, une ou plusieurs bases de compression associées aux un ou plusieurs faisceaux spatiaux, et un ou plusieurs coefficients associés au ou aux faisceaux spatiaux et à une ou plusieurs bases de compression ; identifier que la ressource UL est insuffisante pour transporter une charge utile pour un rapport de CSI ; omettre une partie des composants de rétroaction associés à au moins un faisceau spatial et au moins une base de compression ; et rapporter les composants de rétroaction restants après l'omission.
