COMPUTING CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION IN A 5G WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM IN 4G SPECTRUM FREQUENCIES

摘要

The described technology is generally directed towards providing a more accurate channel state information (CSI) based on obtaining information at a user equipment as to whether multiple access technologies (e.g., new radio (NR) and long term evolution (LTE)) are multiplexed on the same carrier or not, e.g., whether LTE-NR coexistence is in use. If so, the user equipment removes LTE resource overhead data and NR overhead data when computing the CSI report. If not, the user equipment removes NR overhead data when computing the CSI report. Also described is generating the CSI report based on mutual information or capacity approaches.
