Extrapolated CSI report based on a multi-symbol reference signal

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems (e.g., non-beam related channel state information (CSI) reporting), a CSI processing unit (CPU) may process CSI calculations for a CSI report. A user equipment may have a set number of CPUs. In some cases, there may not be enough CPUs available to process a CSI report for each CSI-RS due the CPU capability of the UE. In such cases, the UE may select a subset of the CSI-RSs to generate an extrapolated CSI report. To extrapolate, the UE may measure channel conditions of at least some pre-configured number (e.g., at least two) of CSI-RSs and determine the channel condition of a point later in time and report this extrapolation in a CSI report to the base station. A base station may schedule future data transmissions with the user equipment based on the extrapolated CSI report.
