Rate splitting for multiple input multiple output communications

Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may transmit capability information indicating a capability of the UE to support a rate splitting multiple input multiple output (MIMO) communication. The UE may receive, based at least in part on the capability information, configuration information associated with the rate splitting MIMO communication. The UE may identify, based at least in part on the configuration information, at least one of a downlink control information (DCI) format, a DCI size, one or more DCI fields, or one or more DCI field sizes associated with a DCI communication associated with the rate splitting MIMO communication. The UE may monitor the DCI communication and decoding the rate splitting MIMO communication based at least in part on the configuration information and the DCI communication. Numerous other aspects are described.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
