Channel State Information Reporting for TRP Operation

The patent application abstract describes a system where a user equipment (UE) reports channel state information (CSI) to a network, based on at least one CSI report configuration received from a base station. Each CSI report configuration includes at least one reference resource set configuration, which in turn includes at least one reference resource configuration. The UE then sends a transmission indicating its preference for a single transmission and reception point (TRP) mode or a multiple TRP (multi-TRP) mode to the base station.

User equipment (UE) reports channel state information (CSI) to a network.
UE receives at least one CSI report configuration from a base station.
Each CSI report configuration includes at least one reference resource set configuration.
Each reference resource set configuration includes at least one reference resource configuration.
UE sends a transmission indicating preference for single TRP mode or multi-TRP mode to the base station.

Unanswered Questions

How does the system handle interference in multi-TRP mode?

The abstract does not provide details on how the system mitigates interference when operating in multi-TRP mode.

What impact does the user preference for TRP mode have on network resource allocation?

It is not clear from the abstract how the user's preference for a specific TRP mode affects the allocation of network resources.

Original Abstract Submitted

a user equipment (ue) reports channel state information (csi) to a network. the ue receives, from a base station, at least one channel state information (csi) report configuration, wherein each csi report configuration includes at least one reference resource set configuration, wherein each reference resource set configuration includes at least one reference resource configuration and sends, to the base station, a transmission indicating whether the ue prefers a single transmission and reception point (trp) mode or a multiple trp (multi-trp) mode.
