Abstract

Selon des modes de réalisation, l'invention concerne des procédés, des dispositifs, des appareils et des supports lisibles par ordinateur permettant une rétroaction d'informations d'état de canal (CSI). Un dispositif terminal obtient, à partir d'un dispositif réseau, un ensemble de paramètres pour configurer des nombres réels de coefficients non nuls destinés à une pluralité de couches d'un canal. Le dispositif terminal détermine des informations concernant les coefficients non nuls devant être indiqués dans une première partie de CSI. Le dispositif terminal détermine les nombres réels de coefficients non nuls sur la base de l'ensemble de paramètres et des informations. Le dispositif terminal transmet, au dispositif réseau, la première partie des CSI indiquant les informations et transmet, au dispositif réseau, la seconde partie des CSI sur la base des nombres réels de coefficients non nuls. Ainsi, la charge utile totale de rétroaction CSI pour un rang supérieur peut être comparable à celle d'un rang inférieur.
