DETAILED DESCRIPTON
Associating the channel state information (CSI) feedback with multiple input and multiple output (MIMO) transmission mode may simplify the operation procedure. Once configured into one transmission mode, a user equipment (UE) has a fixed procedure to measure and feedback related CSI content. However, it may be hard for evolved NodeB (eNB) to decide what CSI feedback mostly fits the user. With CSI feedback associated with transmission mode, it may also be difficult to accommodate scheduling and link adaption for control channel. As a result, some long term evolution (LTE) control channels, e.g. physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) , or enhanced physical downlink control channel (ePDCCH) , can only depend on less efficient outer loop controlling schemes for scheduling and link adaptation.
Single MIMO transmission mode (or no transmission mode) has been discussed within third generation partnership project (3GPP) 5th generation (5G) MIMO work force. The design target is to use one MIMO transmission mode to cover all MIMO transmission schemes. The eNB could dynamically switch transmission scheme (TS) from transmission time interval
(TTI) to TTI using downlink control information (DCI) . A unified CSI feedback framework to fit all the transmission schemes may be needed.
In an example embodiment, a unified CSI feedback framework for both data and control channels and different transmission schemes is proposed.
In an example embodiment, an eNB may configure a set of candidate MIMO transmission schemes and optionally an uplink (UL) resource for UE selected transmission scheme reporting:
- A MIMO transmission scheme is a general term which may apply to data or control channel.
- A MIMO transmission scheme for data channel may include for example:
- Transmit diversity (TxD) such as for example space frequency block coding (SFBC)
- Open loop spatial multiplexing such as for example large delay cyclic delay diversity (CDD) (with multiple ranks)
- Close loop spatial multiplexing (e.g. with precoding matrix indicator (PMI) feedback)
- A MIMO transmission scheme for control channel may include for example:
- Distributed PDCCH like (with interleaved control channel element (CCE) configuration)
- Localized ePDCCH like (with localized enhanced CCE (eCCE) configuration)
Each MIMO transmission scheme is associated with a CSI calculation mechanism and a CSI feedback format. Note that the eNB can preclude some transmissions schemes for UE to select. For example, if eNB decides to pair a particular UE with others for multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) . It may not want this UE to select TxD as hypothetical transmission scheme. In that case, eNB can preclude the TxD scheme from the candidate transmission scheme set.
In an example embodiment, when triggered by eNB, a UE can select a MIMO transmission scheme from the candidate set as hypothetical transmission scheme for the CSI feedback. The selected hypothetic transmission scheme will determine the CSI calculation mechanism and corresponding feedback format.
In an example embodiment, the selection may be based on observed channel changing rate, credibility of the CSI accuracy and link adaptation (LA) efficiency between control and data channels. For example, if the UE observes inefficient control scheduling (e.g. block error rate (BLER) is too high) , it may select a transmission scheme for control channel as for CSI feedback to allow eNB better adjust the control channel scheduling and link adaption. In another example, if UE observes the channel is changing too fast, it may select TxD as hypothetical transmission scheme for CSI feedback. This selection may provide recommendation to eNB about which transmission scheme to use as well as corresponding scheduling and link adaption.
In an example embodiment, the information of the selected MIMO transmission scheme, such as for example, the index of the selected MIMO transmission scheme, is feedback to eNB together with the CSI, separately or jointly encoded.
In an example embodiment, a selected MIMO transmission scheme may have different CSI feedback formats. For example, as an implicit feedback, ifthe UE selects open loop spatial multiplexing, the CSI may include rank indicator (RI) and channel quality indicator (CQI) information; ifthe UE selects close loop spatial multiplexing, CSI feedback may include RI, PMI and CQI. In another example, as an explicit feedback, if the UE selects close loop spatial multiplexing, it may feedback quantized Eigen vectors plus quantized interference. In an example embodiment, multiple candidate MIMO transmission schemes of the set may be associated with one same CSI quantization type, and their associated CSI feedback formats are corresponding to different quantization granularities.
In an example embodiment, once receiving the CSI feedback selected by the UE, the eNB may use the recommended MIMO transmission scheme for future data or control transmission. The eNB may generate a message for the UE to acknowledge the CSI feedback, hence, the recommended MIMO transmission scheme. In another example embodiment, the eNB may over-write the recommend MIMO transmission scheme and choose by itself. For example, if UE selects close-loop MIMO, however, eNB finds the historical BLER of this user is very bad, it may overwrite it to transmission diversity.
Figure 1 illustrates a flowchart in accordance with an example embodiment of the application. In the example of Figure 1, a network element (NE) , such as for example, an eNB, determines a set of candidate MIMO transmission scheme at step 101. Each MIMO
transmission scheme is associated with a CSI calculation mechanism and a CSI feedback format. The eNB indicates the determined set of candidate MIMO transmission schemes to a UE at step 102. At step 103 the eNB may optionally determine an uplink resource and indicate the uplink resource to the UE. At step 104 the eNB receives a CSI feedback with a format associated with a MIMO transmission scheme selected from the set. The eNB may acknowledge the received CSI and hence the MIMO transmission scheme selected by the UE and adopt it for future transmission at step 105.
Figure 2 illustrates another flowchart in accordance with an example embodiment of the application. In the example of Figure 2, a UE receives from a NE, such as for example, an eNB, a set of candidate MIMO transmission scheme at step 201. Each MIMO transmission scheme is associated with a CSI calculation mechanism and a CSI feedback format. The UE selects a MIMO transmission scheme from the received set at step 202. At step 203 the UE calculates a CSI and determines a CSI feedback format based on the selected MIMO transmission scheme. The UE may receive an uplink resource from the NE at step 204, and indicate the CSI with the determined feedback format to the NE on the received uplink resource at step 205. At step 206 the UE may receive an acknowledgement from the NE acknowledging the indicated CSI and hence the selected MIMO transmission scheme that may be adopted by the NE for future transmission.
