A network node signals to a wireless communication device which precoders in a codebook are restricted from being used. The network node in this regard generates codebook subset restriction signaling that, for each of one or more groups of precoders, jointly restricts the precoders in the group by restricting a certain component (e.g., a certain beam precoder) that the precoders in the group have in common. This signaling may be for instance rank-agnostic signaling that jointly restricts the precoders in a group without regard to the precoders' transmission rank. Regardless, the network node sends the generated signaling to the wireless communication device.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a first configuration of one or more channel state information reference signal resources and a second configuration of a channel state information report associated with the one or more channel state information reference signal resources. In some cases, the second configuration may include at least one of an indication of a codebook, a set of codebook restriction sets, and a configured bandwidth. The UE may then identify a mapping between one or more frequency-domain subbands of the configured bandwidth and each codebook restriction set of the set of codebook restriction sets, and transmit, to the base station, a report indicating one or more precoding matrix indicators from the codebook for each of the one or more frequency-domain subbands based on the mapping.

A method performed by a UE for generating a CSI report in a wireless communication system, including receiving from a network node, a CSI report configuration information including at least one parameter, D, for indicating a first basis set of D basis vectors used for constructing for each transmission layer a precoding vector or matrix for a rank set; identifying a precoding vector matrix for each transmission layer based on the first basis set, a second basis set comprising P basis vectors, and a number of combining coefficients for combining selected vectors from the first and second basis set; generating a CSI report based on the CSI report configuration information for a RI, or v of the rank set; and transmitting the CSI report to the network node.

Enhanced channel state information (CSI) reporting may include encoding a CSI reporting configuration associated with a first transmission and reception point (TRP) and a second TRP. The CSI reporting configuration may include at least one codebook configuration. The at least one codebook may include at least one of a rank restriction configuration or a codebook subset restriction (CBSR) configuration. The at least one of the rank restriction configuration or the CBSR configuration may correspond to at least one of a particular type of TRP measurement, a particular TRP of the first TRP or the second TRP, or channel measurement resources (CMRs) associated with at least one of the first TRP or the second TRP. A CSI measurement communication received from a user equipment (UE) may be decoded. The CSI measurement communication may be based on the decoded CSI reporting configuration.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, devices, apparatuses and computer readable storage media for Uplink Control Information (UCI) design. The method comprises determining, at a terminal device, a matrix comprising a set of non-zero linear combination coefficients for quantizing a channel between the terminal device and a network device, the matrix having spatial components and frequency components; shifting the frequency components of the matrix circularly, such that a target coefficient of the set of non-zero linear combination coefficients is located in a frequency component with a predetermined index of the frequency components in a shifted matrix; generating a first indication indicating the spatial component associated with the target coefficient in the matrix; and transmitting, to the network device, uplink control information comprising the first indication.
