A wireless communication system wirelessly communicates through a physical barrier using beamforming. A serving transceiver determines and transfers downlink beamforming and power information to a network transceiver. The serving transceiver may determine the downlink power information based on the beamforming information to increase downlink power based on a beamforming aperture. The network transceiver wirelessly receives the downlink beamforming and power information from the serving transceiver. The network transceiver wirelessly receives a downlink signal from a wireless access node. The network transceiver beamforms and amplifies the downlink signal based on the downlink beamforming and power information. The network transceiver wirelessly transfers the beamformed and amplified downlink signal to the serving transceiver. The serving transceiver wirelessly receives the beamformed and amplified downlink signal from the network transceiver. The network transceiver transfers the downlink signal to a user communication device.

A user equipment (UE) transmits concurrent channel state information (CSI) processing capability information to a base station. The capability information can take various forms, and is intended to constrain the base station in the types of CSI requests that can be made to the UE. For example, the UE may indicate different CSI processing capabilities for intra-CC and inter-CC cases and/or for different codebook types. The UE may also specify supported combinations of codebook types for concurrent CSI reporting. The UE may also specify maximum resources or weighting factors for different codebook types. The UE may further restrict the rank information it provides and use a priority rule for “dropping” CSI report data due to payload size restrictions. The base station may direct, or the UE may implement, improved utilization of CSI resources that are shared for multiple concurrent CSI reports. Minimum time requirements for CSI reporting may also be relaxed.
