A base station including: a controller configured to configure a plurality of configuration information, each of the plurality of configuration information includes resource configuration information, a number of antenna ports, and power control information; and a transmitter configured to transmit to terminal a control signal including the plurality of configuration information, wherein, the transmitter transmits to terminal an indication information that indicates configuration information to be used for measurement among the plurality of the configuration information.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for channel state information (CSI) feedback for multiple discrete Fourier transform (DFT) beams on multiple transmission layers. A user equipment (UE) may report a total number of non-zero power DFT beams across all of the transmission layers. The UE may be configured with a total number of leading beams (K.sub.total) across all of the transmission layers for which to provide high quantization feedback. When the total number of non-zero DFT beams across all the transmission layers exceeds the configured total number of leading beams across all the transmission layers, the UE may report high-resolution quantization feedback for K.sub.total non-zero power precoding coefficients having the highest amplitude coefficients, and may report low-resolution quantization feedback for the remaining non-zero power precoding coefficients. A base station may receive the CSI feedback to determine a precoding matrix.

Mechanisms for reduction of channel state information (CSI) feedback overhead are disclosed for full dimensional multiple input, multiple output (FD-MIMO) systems with large dimension antenna ports. In one aspect, rank-dependent CSI antenna port measurements are used in order to limit the number of antenna ports for high rank CSI reporting. Another aspect allows a user equipment (UE) to select subband feedback for aperiodic CSI porting on an uplink shared channel when the UE is to report subband quality and precoding indicators. Another aspect provides for on-demand CSI feedback that dynamically configures CSI feedback parameters. To reduce the signaling overhead, the multiple parameter sets may be pre-configured with different values for dynamic reporting parameters.

Method and apparatus for high-resolution channel state information (CSI) reporting in advanced wireless communication systems. A method of operating a user equipment (UE) includes selecting, from a full basis set comprising N bases for a plurality of v layers, an intermediate basis set comprising N′ bases that are common among the plurality of v layers and selecting, from the selected intermediate basis set, a basis subset comprising M.sub.l bases for each layer l of the plurality of v layers. The method further includes transmitting, to a base station (BS), indices of the N′ bases included in the selected intermediate basis set and indices of the M.sub.l bases included in the selected basis subsets. N, N′, and M.sub.l are positive integers; N′<N; M.sub.l<N′; l∈{0, 1 . . . , v−1}; and v is a rank value.

Embodiments of this application provide a precoding matrix indication method, a communications apparatus, and a storage medium. A precoding matrix of each of K frequency-domain units satisfies W=W.sub.1×W.sub.2, and elements in W.sub.2 in the K frequency-domain units are represented by P elements that are relatively few. A terminal device reports third indication information, where the third indication information includes first indication information and the second indication information, and the first indication information and the second indication information are independently encoded. The first indication information is used to indicate the P elements, and the second indication information is used to indicate P. Therefore, the terminal device can adjust a quantity of information bits of the second indication information based on a channel condition change, thereby improving precoding matrix reporting efficiency.

According to the present disclosure, a UE transmits to a base station information associated with uplink transmission supported by the UE and the UE information includes a subset including at least one transmit precoding matrix indicator (TPMI) supported by the UE. The UE may receive from the base station uplink transmission information including a TPMI for transmitting an uplink channel and transmit to the base station the uplink channel based on the uplink transmission information, and the uplink channel may be transmitted through full transmission power configured by the base station based on a case where the TPMI is included in the subset.
