Embodiment 1

[0181] For a 2D dual-polarization array with sufficiently small inter-element spacing, each polarization (+45 or -45)A(φ,θ) can be written as follows (see Figure 7 with Figure 8 ):

[0182]

[0183] In this case, the quantized channel coefficients The number is 2KL×N RX N F instead of 2N r N c ×N RX N F . When (0 max -θ min ) and (φ max -φ min ) is relatively small, it is estimated that KLr N c (This results in some savings in feedback requirements). This is because for a reasonable time span, low mobility UEs are located by {(φ, θ): φ∈[φ min , φ max ]∧θ∈[θ min , θ max ]} within the small cone of the AoD defined.

[0184] The proposed scheme operates based on a predetermined main set of basis functions / vectors. This master set is fixed and structured to cover the entire range of AoD values, ie {(φ,θ):φ∈[0,2π)∧θ∈[0,π)}. For a given number of rows and columns (N r , N c ), requiring at least N r values ​​of θ (preferably well spaced span [0, π)) and ...

Embodiment 2

[0189]Note that Equation 2A and Equation 3 facilitate (or at least encourage) linear discretization in the AoD domain. Alternatively, the MIMO channel can also be represented as a linear combination of basis functions / vectors in the DFT phase domain, which is:

[0190]

[0191]

[0192] Similar to the first embodiment, in the case of a multi-cone configuration, Equation 6 and Equation 7 apply to each of the plurality of cones.

[0193] Similar to Equation 5, Δ in Equation 7 r and Δ c is the oversampling factor (an integer > 1, 1 in the special case of non-overlapping DFT beams), which produces overlapping DFT beams. In this case, the primary set associated with Equation 6 and Equation 7 is given by Equation 8A below:

[0194]

[0195] l=0,1,...,Δ r N r -1,k=0,1,...,Δ c N c -1 (8A)

[0196] As mentioned above, an oversampling factor of 1 corresponds to non-overlapping beams, i.e. critically sampled DFT vectors. Similarly, the quantized channel coefficients T...

Embodiment 3

[0199] Starting from Embodiment 1 or 2, another level of dimensionality reduction can be achieved if the channel representation in Equation 2 / 2B or Equation 6 is applied to the channel eigenvector instead of the channel itself. Using Equation 2b to illustrate this method (one skilled in the art should easily extend to the case of Equation 2 or Equation 6), the procedure is as follows:

[0200] • Perform eigendecomposition or singular value decomposition on the DL MIMO channel for each polarization and frequency subband. Here, channels associated with different receive antennas are concatenated into a channel matrix.

[0201] Based on the selected RI (eg, N=1 or 2), the UE 116 selects N dominant (strongest) eigenvectors (or right singular vectors), and the corresponding eigenvalues ​​are reflected / captured in the N of CQI values.

[0202] • Since the UE is located within one or a few small pyramids, each of the N eigenvectors (for each polarization and frequency subband) allo...

Abstract

A method for operating a base station includes allocating at least one respective CSI-RS port to each of a plurality of user equipments (UEs), precoding the at least one respective CSI-RS port with a first respective precoding matrix for each of the plurality of UEs, transmitting the at least one respective CSI-RS port precoded with the first respective precoding matrix through a channel to each of the plurality of UEs, receiving an index of a second respective precoding matrix from each of the plurality of UEs, wherein the second respective precoding matrix is determined according to the at least respective one CSI-RS port precoded with the first precoding matrix as received through the channel by each of the plurality of UEs, and precoding respective transmission data with the first respective precoding matrix and the second respective precoding matrix to each of the plurality of UEs.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure generally relates to partially precoded CSI-RS antenna ports associated with multiple transmit antennas. Such two-dimensional arrays are associated with a type of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system commonly referred to as "full-dimensional" MIMO (FD-MIMO) or massive-MIMO or 3D-MIMO. Background technique [0002] Wireless communication has been one of the most successful innovations in modern history. Recently, the number of subscribers to wireless communication services exceeded five billion and continues to grow rapidly. Demand for wireless data traffic is growing rapidly due to the increasing popularity of smartphones and other mobile data devices such as tablets, "notebook" computers, netbooks, e-book readers and machine-type devices among consumers and businesses. To meet the high growth in mobile data traffic and support new applications and deployments, improvements in radio interface efficiency and coverage are...
