Selecting a joint equalization and decoding model

A processor for wireless communication, comprising:

• at least one controller coupled with at least one memory and configured to cause the processor to:
• receive a set of conditions for performing a data-aided channel state information (CSI) measurement;
• store signal information for a received signal comprising a data sequence, wherein the signal information comprises the received signal, a compressed version of the received signal, a down-sampled version of the data sequence, or a combination thereof;
• decode and verify the data sequence via a cyclic redundancy check (CRC);
• perform, in response to determining that the set of conditions is satisfied, at least one data-aided CSI measurement using the signal information and the verified data sequence;
• receive a CSI reporting configuration for the at least one data-aided CSI measurement, wherein the CSI reporting configuration comprises a CSI reporting criterion and an expected type of the at least one data-aided CSI measurement;
• and
• transmit a CSI report based at least in part on the CSI reporting criterion and the at least one data-aided CSI measurement, wherein the CSI report comprises at least one portion of the at least one data-aided CSI measurement.

A method performed by a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:

• receiving a set of conditions for performing a data-aided channel state information (CSI) measurement;
• storing signal information for a received signal comprising a data sequence, wherein the signal information comprises the received signal, a compressed version of the received signal, a down-sampled version of the data sequence, or a combination thereof;
• decoding and verifying the data sequence via a cyclic redundancy check (CRC);
• performing, in response to determining that the set of conditions is satisfied, at least one data-aided CSI measurement using the signal information and the verified data sequence;
• receiving a CSI reporting configuration for the at least one data-aided CSI measurement, wherein the CSI reporting configuration comprises a CSI reporting criterion and an expected type of the at least one data-aided CSI measurement;
• and
• transmitting a CSI report based at least in part on the CSI reporting criterion and the at least one data-aided CSI measurement, wherein the CSI report comprises at least one portion of the at least one data-aided CSI measurement.

A base station for wireless communication, comprising:

• at least one memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled with the at least one memory and configured to cause the base station to:
• transmit a set of conditions for performing a data-aided channel state information (CSI) measurement;
• transmit a CSI reporting configuration for at least one data-aided CSI measurement, wherein the CSI reporting configuration comprises a CSI reporting criterion and an expected type of the at least one data-aided CSI measurement;
• transmit a signal comprising a data sequence for the at least one data-aided CSI measurement and a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) associated with the data sequence;
• and
• receive a CSI report comprising at least one portion of the at least one data-aided CSI measurement determined from the transmitted signal and the data sequence.
