APERIODIC CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION REFERENCE SIGNAL RATE MATCHING

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a downlink control information message scheduling a downlink transmission that comprises a zero-power reference signal for the UE to use for rate matching during the downlink transmission. The UE may receive a signal triggering transmission of an aperiodic reference signal during the downlink transmission. The UE may determine whether the UE supports search space sharing. The UE may perform, upon determining that the UE supports search space sharing, rate matching around the aperiodic reference signal.
