Evolved node-B, user equipment, and methods for channel quality indicator (CQI) feedback

摘要

Embodiments of User Equipment (UE), an Evolved Node-B (eNB), and methods for channel quality indicator (CQI) feedback are disclosed herein. An aperiodic CQI type parameter received at the UE may indicate a CQI type for use in a determination of an aperiodic CQI based on signals received from the eNB. Channel-state information reference signals (CSI-RS) may be used when single-user multiple-input multiple-output (SU-MIMO) signals are received. Physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) blocks may be used when multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) signals are received. The aperiodic CQI may be transmitted to the eNB as part of an aperiodic CQI measurement report. In addition, periodic CQI measurement reports may also be transmitted to the eNB and may include periodic CQIs that are based on CSI-RS received at the UE.
