Abstract
A base station includes a transmit path circuitry to transmit an indication of whether a subscriber station is configured with precoding matrix indicator/rank indicator (PMI/RI) reporting. The transmit path circuitry sets a pre-coding granularity to multiple physical resource blocks in the frequency domain to perform a same pre-coding over a bundled resource block if the subscriber station is configured with PMI/RI reporting. The bundled resource block includes multiple consecutive physical resource blocks in the frequency domain. The base station also includes a receive path circuitry to receive feedback from the subscriber station.
Claims20
A base station, comprising:
- a transmit path circuitry configured to:
- transmit information for feedback to a subscriber station, and
- set a same precoding to be applied to all scheduled physical resource blocks within a resource block group when precoding matrix indicator/rank indicator (PMI/RI) feedback is configured according to the information for feedback and a transmission mode 9 or 10 is configured;
- and
- a receive path circuitry configured to receive a feedback from the subscriber station.
A method of operating a base station, the method comprising:
- transmitting information for feedback to a subscriber station;
- setting a same precoding to be applied to all scheduled physical resource blocks within a resource block group when precoding matrix indicator/rank indicator (PMI/RI) feedback is configured according to the information for feedback and a transmission mode 9 or 10 is configured;
- and
- receiving a feedback from the subscriber station.
A subscriber station, comprising:
- a receive path circuitry configured to:
- receive from a base station information for feedback, and
- identify that a same precoding is applied to all scheduled physical resource blocks within a resource block group when precoding matrix indicator/rank indicator (PMI/RI) feedback is configured according to the information for feedback and a transmission mode 9 or 10 is configured;
- and
- a transmit path circuitry configured to transmit a feedback to the base station.
A method of operating a subscriber station, the method comprising:
- receiving, from a base station, information for feedback;
- identifying that a same precoding is applied to all scheduled physical resource blocks within a resource block group when precoding matrix indicator/rank indicator (PMI/RI) feedback is configured according to the information for feedback and a transmission mode 9 or 10 is configured;
- and
- transmitting a feedback to the base station.
