## Abstract

Channel state information (CSI) reporting may be used for wireless communications. CSI reporting may be activated or deactivated. During the activation of CSI reporting and based on one or more criteria, a scheduled uplink transmission may be selected.

## Claims

based on at least one timing condition and based on a determination that the scheduled transmission of the at least one transport block overlaps in time with a scheduled transmission of at least one SP CSI report:

transmitting, based on a transmission power, the at least one transport block via at least one resource indicated by the uplink grant.

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The method of claim 12, wherein the scheduled transmission of the at least one SP CSI report and the scheduled transmission of the at least one transport block are via uplink shared channels of a cell.

### Claim 14 (depends on 12)

### Claim 15 (depends on 12)
