REPORTING AND PRECODER SIGNALING IN SIDELINK RESOURCE ALLOCATION

Abstract:

Aspects of the present disclosure provide apparatus, methods, processing systems, and computer readable mediums for providing two channel state information (CSI) reports based on sidelink CSI reference signal (RS) respectively to a sidelink user equipment (UE) and a network entity (e.g., a base station). Existing sidelink CSI reporting between UEs is not shared with the network. The lack of information on the network side prevents scheduling improvements. Therefore, by generating a second CSI report to the network, the network can have information to better schedule sidelink UE transmissions and to introduce precoding matrix indicator (PMI) signaling.
