Abstract
The invention inter alia pertains to a terminal device comprising means for transmitting, to a network node, rank structure information indicative of a particular configuration of one or more reference signal resources useable for channel state information, CSI, acquisition to enable a layered transmission between the network node and the terminal device having a rank value lower than or equal to a particular maximum rank value. The invention also pertains to a network node.
Claims24
A terminal device comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the terminal device at least to perform:
- transmitting, to a network node, rank structure information indicative of a particular configuration of one or more reference signal resources useable for channel state information, CSI, acquisition to enable a layered transmission between the network node and the terminal device having a rank value lower than or equal to a particular maximum rank value.
A network node comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the network node at least to perform:
- receiving, from a terminal device, rank structure information indicative of a particular configuration of one or more reference signal resources useable for channel state information, CSI, acquisition to enable a layered transmission between the network node and the terminal device having a rank value lower than or equal to a particular maximum rank value.
