## Abstract

Procedures, methods, architectures, apparatuses, systems, devices, and computer program products for reporting of precoders, in particular hybrid precoders for near-field and far-field operation. A wireless transmit/receive unit measures one or more downlink, DL, reference signals, RSs, to obtain a measurement result, determines, based on the measurement result, at least a first set of vectors, determines, based on the measurement result, at least a second set of vectors having complex valued elements, across which phase progression is non-linear, determines precoder information comprising at least the first set of vectors and the second set of vectors, and transmits, to a transmission reception point, information indicating the precoder information.
