EXPLICIT CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION (CSI) FEEDBACK IN MULTIPLE-INPUT- MULTIPLE-OUTPUT (MIMO)/ CLOUD RADOM ACCESS NETWORK (RAN)

摘要

Embodiments of the present disclosure discloses a method for enabling CSI feedback in Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) wireless communication system comprising at least one user equipment (UE) and at least one base station (BS). The UE receives a plurality of downlink (DL) channel state information CSI from the BS and generate an explicit CSI from the received DL CSI. The UE determines a range of frequency domain values and channel state values from the received DL CSI. Upon determination, the UE performs IDFT to determine time domain channel impulse response matrices for the range of frequency domain values and perform CSI quantization. In another embodiment, the processor performs CSI quantization on either full range or a partial range of the time domain channel impulse response matrices to obtain optimized time domain channel explicit CSI and transmit the generated explicit CSI as a feedback to the one or more BS.
