Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing capability signaling design for 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) release 15 (Rel-15) and/or release 16 (Rel-16) multi-input multi-output (MIMO) enhancement. For example, systems and methods are provided implementing designs for New Radio (NR) MIMO channel state information (CSI) for a small bandwidth part (BWP) and/or a small number of subbands. For example, some aspects relate to a user equipment (UE) including a transceiver configured to communicate with a base station and a processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver. The processor receives, from the base station, a CSI reporting configuration message. The processor determines, using the CSI reporting configuration message, that a number of physical resource blocks (PRBs) of a BWP associated with the CSI reporting configuration message is less than a threshold number. The processor also generates and transmits a CSI report for the BWP.

A method for operating a user equipment (UE) comprises receiving a configuration about a CSI report, the configuration including information about a codebook, the codebook comprising components: (i) sets of basis vectors including a first set of vectors each of length P.sub.CSIRS×1 for a SD, a second set of vectors each of length N.sub.3×1 for a FD, and a third set of vectors each of length N.sub.4×1 for a DD, and (ii) coefficients associated with each basis vector triple (a.sub.i,b.sub.f,c.sub.d), a.sub.i from the first set, b.sub.f from the second set, and c.sub.d from the third set; determining, based on the configuration, the components; and transmitting the CSI report including: at least one basis vector indicator indicating all or a portion of the sets of basis vectors, and at least one coefficient indicator indicating all or a portion of the coefficients.

Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for facilitating opportunistic CSI for sidelink communication are disclosed herein. An example method for wireless communication at a responding sidelink UE includes receiving, from an initiating sidelink UE, a request to provide CSI feedback to the initiating sidelink UE, the request excluding a CSI-RS. The example method also includes decoding a transmission from the initiating sidelink UE to a neighboring sidelink UE, the transmission including a CSI feedback trigger. The example method also includes transmitting, to the initiating sidelink UE, a CSI report based on the transmission.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive an indication to switch a beam used by the UE, wherein the indication triggers at least one of a reference signal for a beam measurement or a transmission of a measurement report, based at least in part on an association of the beam with the reference signal or the measurement report. The UE may receive the reference signal associated with the beam measurement based at least in part on receiving the indication to switch the beam. The UE may transmit, using one or more transmission parameters, the measurement report indicating a measurement of the reference signal, wherein the one or more transmission parameters are based at least in part on receiving the indication to switch the beam. Numerous other aspects are described.

Channel state information reference signal transmission can be used to estimate channel state information. Although resources needed for channel state information reference signals can be small, when multiple bandwidths are deployed within the same orthogonal frequency division multiplexing bandwidth, estimating the channel state information can comprise a channel state information reference signal resource grid for every bandwidth. Therefore, time-frequency resources for channel state information reference signals can be high and occupy a lot of bandwidth, thereby reducing the number of resources for data transmission. Therefore, a non-orthogonal design for channel state information reference signals for a 5G air interface can mitigate bandwidth loss in a 5G network.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for enhancements to channel state information (CSI) reporting. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes obtaining, from a network entity, a CSI reporting configuration for reporting CSI for a channel. The method further includes generating a model of an interference pattern for the channel, and predicting one or more candidate interference levels for one or more upcoming slots using the model. The method further includes reporting information regarding the candidate interference levels to the network entity.

A UE may enter a dormant state, e.g., for power savings. The systems, methods, and apparatus described herein may provide ways for the UE to transition between an active state and a dormant state, as well as UE behavior in a dormant state. The apparatus may be a UE configured to receive an indication of a bandwidth part (BWP) switch for a secondary cell and to transition between an active state and a dormant state for the secondary cell based on the indication of the BWP switch.

Provided are a beam recovery processing method, a beam recovery method, a base station and a terminal. The beam recovery processing method includes: determining, by a transmitting end, a configuration information set for instructing a receiving end to perform a beam recovery; and transmitting, by the transmitting end, the configuration information set to the receiving end.

Disclosed is a 5.sup.th generation (5G) or a pre-5G communication system provided to support a higher data transmission rate than that of post-4.sup.th generation (4G) communication systems, such as long term evolution (LTE). A method of operating a network node in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes receiving, from a plurality of first network nodes, network data, generating first recommendation operation information for a second network node based on the network data, and transmitting, to the second network node, a first analysis result message including the first recommendation operation information.

A method and apparatus are disclosed for configuring at least one set of beta offset values, and for each of the at least one set of beta offset values, at least one subset of beta offset values being defined for information corresponding to Uplink Control Information, UCI, and being associated with at least one service type. A method and apparatus are disclosed for obtaining a configuration of at least one set of beta offset values, for each of the at least one set of beta offset values, the configuration being associated with at least one subset of beta offset values, the at least one subset of beta offset values being defined for information corresponding to UCI and being associated with at least one service type.
