Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure are directed to periodic over-the-air channel state information (CSI) reporting to serving cells and one or more non-serving cells via a control channel multi-point attachment. The channel state information report may be transmitted based on information indicating how to transmit the channel state information report to the non-serving cell. The information indicating how to transmit the channel state information report may be provided by the serving eNodeB. The information may include a periodicity, offset parameters, timing advance commands, power control commands, and/or an aperiodic report request.

A method of wireless communication, the method comprising:
- identifying, at a user equipment (UE), an aggressor eNodeB that is interfering with a downlink signal from a serving eNodeB;
- receiving, at the UE from the serving eNodeB, a signal indicating aggressor parameters for transmitting a first channel state information (CSI) report to the aggressor eNodeB and serving parameters for transmitting a second CSI report to the serving eNodeB, the aggressor parameters comprising first parameters and second parameters, the first parameters comprising a or an aperiodic report request and the second parameters comprising at least offset parameters, timing advance commands, power control commands, or a combination thereof;
- and
- transmitting, from the UE when the serving eNodeB and the aggressor eNodeB have a different payload and propagation delay from the UE, the first CSI report to the aggressor eNodeB based at least in part on the aggressor parameters that are different from the serving parameters.
A method of wireless communication, the method comprising:
- determining, at a non-serving eNodeB, aggressor reporting parameters for transmitting a first channel state information (CSI) report from a non-served user equipment (UE) to the non-serving eNodeB, the aggressor reporting parameters comprising first parameters and second parameters, the first parameters comprising a periodicity or an aperiodic report request and the second parameters comprising at least offset parameters, timing advance commands, power control commands, or a combination thereof;
- and
- receiving, when a serving eNodeB and the non-serving eNodeB have a different payload and propagation delay from the UE, the first CSI report over air from the non-served UE based at least in part on the aggressor parameters that are different from serving parameters determined at the serving eNodeB.
An apparatus for wireless communications, comprising:
- means for identifying, at a processor of a user equipment (UE), an aggressor eNodeB that is interfering with a downlink signal from a serving eNodeB;
