Frame structure in nr

A method for configuring user equipment comprising:

• receiving, from a new radio (NR) node, downlink control information including channel state information interference channel measurement (CSI-ICM) resources;
• measuring the CSI-ICM resources;
• and
• sending, to the NR node, feedback based on the measured CSI-ICM resources,
• wherein the received CSI-ICM resources are based on ‘N’ of ‘K’ CSI-ICM resources configured for a group including the user equipment and other user equipment,
• wherein ‘N’ is dependent upon a number of interference sources.

An apparatus comprising:

• a non-transitory memory including instructions stored thereon for configuring user equipment;
• and
• a processor operably coupled to the non-transitory memory configured to execute the instruction including:
• configuring a set of ‘K’ channel state information interference channel measurement (CSI-ICM) resources for a group of user equipment via radio resource control (RRC) signaling;
• indicating, for one of the user equipment in the group, at least ‘N’ of the ‘K’ CSI-ICM resources via downlink control information, the downlink control information including a number of CSI-ICM resources and locations;
• transmitting downlink control information including the CSI-ICM resources to the one user equipment in the group;
• receiving, from the one user equipment in the group, feedback of interference measurement based on the transmitted CSI-ICM resources;
• and
• determining a cancelation of interference transmitted from the one user equipment to other co-scheduled user equipment in the group,
• wherein ‘N’ is dependent upon a number of interference sources.

A first user equipment comprising:

• a non-transitory memory including instructions stored thereon for configuring user equipment;
• and
• a processor operably coupled to the non-transitory memory configured to execute the instruction including:
• receiving a configuration of a set of ‘K’ channel state information interference channel measurement (CSI-ICM) resources for a group of user equipment via radio resource control (RRC) signaling, the group of user equipment including the first user equipment;
• receiving an indication of at least ‘N’ of the ‘K’ CSI-ICM resources via downlink control information, the downlink control information including a number of CSI-ICM resources and locations;
• and
• transmitting feedback of interference measurement based on the transmitted CSI-ICM resources, the feedback being for determining a cancelation of interference transmitted from the first user equipment to other co-scheduled user equipment in the group,
• wherein ‘N’ is dependent upon a number of interference sources.
