Definitions

  • the following relates generally to wireless communications, and more specifically to layer specific coefficients omission.
  • Wireless communications systems are widely deployed to provide various types of communication content such as voice, video, packet data, messaging, broadcast, and so on. These systems may be capable of supporting communication with multiple users by sharing the available system resources (e.g., time, frequency, and power) .
  • Examples of such multiple-access systems include fourth generation (4G) systems such as Long Term Evolution (LTE) systems, LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) systems, or LTE-A Pro systems, and fifth generation (5G) systems which may be referred to as New Radio (NR) systems.
  • 4G systems such as Long Term Evolution (LTE) systems, LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) systems, or LTE-A Pro systems
  • 5G systems which may be referred to as New Radio (NR) systems.
  • CDMA code division multiple access
  • TDMA time division multiple access
  • FDMA frequency division multiple access
  • OFDMA orthogonal frequency division multiple access
  • DFT-S-OFDM discrete Fourier transform spread orthogonal frequency division multiplexing
  • a wireless multiple-access communications system may include a number of base stations or network access nodes, each simultaneously supporting communication for multiple communication devices, which may be otherwise known as user equipment (UE) .
  • UE user equipment
  • a base station may indicate for a UE to transmit a channel state information (CSI) report to identify a preferred beam for subsequent communications.
  • CSI channel state information
  • the number of subbands may be relatively large for which the UE transmits the CSI feedback, increasing overhead for the CSI feedback transmission. Efficient techniques are desired for reducing signaling overhead for a CSI feedback transmission.
  • the described techniques relate to improved methods, systems, devices, and apparatuses that support layer specific coefficients omission based on a layer ordering indication (LOI) .
  • LOI layer ordering indication
  • the described techniques provide for a user equipment (UE) to identify a LOI that indicates an order of layers from strongest to weakest (e.g., an order based on a strength metric) , omitting one or more bits from a first payload of a channel state information (CSI) report based on the LOI, and transmitting the CSI report after omitting the one or more bits from the payload.
  • the UE may identify the LOI after receiving a CSI report trigger and an uplink grant configuration indicating resources for carrying the CSI report.
  • the UE may identify that the uplink grant configuration is insufficient for carrying the payload of the CSI report and may omit the one or more bits according to the LOI based on this identification that the uplink grant configuration is insufficient to carry the CSI report payload. For example, the UE may omit the one or more bits on a priority level by priority level basis following an omission rule until the uplink grant configuration is sufficient to carry a second payload of the CSI report.
  • the UE may identify the LOI based on a configuration received from the base station and/or a fixed LOI and may report the LOI to the base station. For example, the UE may jointly encode a layer index based on the LOI with each layer in the CSI report, jointly encode a message to indicate the LOI for the layers transmitted in the CSI report, or a combination thereof.
  • the UE may also transmit at least one of: a spatial domain basis, a frequency domain basis, a first number of non-zero coefficients (NNZC) indicator indicating a total number of NNZC across a set of layers, a set of second NNZC indicators indicating the NNZC of each layer of one or more layers of the set of layers, a set of bitmaps indicating indices of NNZC of each layer of the set of layers, one or more strongest coefficient indicator of each layer of one or more layers of the set of layers, quantizations of the set of the NNZCs of each of the one or more layers, or any combination thereof.
  • the base station may identify which bits were omitted according to the omission rule by the UE in the CSI report to achieve the second payload.
  • the omission rule may be based on a priority order of the set of layers starting from a lowest priority to a highest priority. For example, the UE may omit entire layers starting with the lowest priority layers based on a supported payload size (e.g., if NNZC is reported per layer) or based on a pre-defined portion-of-omission parameter (e.g., if NNZC is reported as a total number of NNZCs) .
  • a supported payload size e.g., if NNZC is reported per layer
  • a pre-defined portion-of-omission parameter e.g., if NNZC is reported as a total number of NNZCs
  • the UE may omit portions (e.g., one coefficient at a time) of each layer starting with the lowest priority layer and proceeding to a next highest priority layer until the second payload size is achieved (e.g., until a total supported payload size is satisfied, a pre-defined portion-of-omission parameter is satisfied, etc. ) .

Abstract

L'invention concerne des procédés, des systèmes et des dispositifs destinés aux communications sans fil. Un équipement utilisateur (UE) peut identifier un indicateur d'ordination de couche (LOI) qui indique un ordre de couches descendant, et indiquer le LOI à une station de base avant ou pendant la transmission d'un rapport d'informations d'état de canal (CSI). Dans certains cas, l'UE peut omettre un ou plusieurs coefficients à partir d'une première charge utile du rapport de CSI sur la base du LOI, et transmettre le rapport de CSI après omission du ou des coefficients à partir de la charge utile jusqu'à ce que la configuration d'autorisation de liaison montante soit suffisante pour transporter une seconde charge utile du rapport de CSI (par exemple, une charge utile maximale prise en charge pour le rapport de CSI). Sur la base du LOI, la station de base peut identifier quels coefficients ont été omis selon la règle d'omission par l'UE dans le rapport CSI pour obtenir la seconde charge utile.
