Semi-persistent CSI feedback over PUSCH

Abstract

A user equipment, base station and method for transmitting semi-persistent channel state information (SP-CSI) on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) are provided. The user equipment includes processing circuitry configured to receive a control signaling message the control signaling message configuring the user equipment with at least one SP CSI report configuration on the PUSCH, and the message identifying a SP CSI reporting periodicity. The user equipment also receives physical layer control signaling identifying and activating the at least one SP CSI report configuration. Transmitter circuitry is configured to transmit a plurality of SP CSI reports, the reports being transmitted with the periodicity and according to the physical layer control signaling and the control signaling message.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
