Abstract

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for non-linear precoding in radio access networks are provided. One method may include, when it is determined that a user equipment is capable of being non-linearly precoded, determining one of two non-linear precoding modes and indicating the determined non-linear precoding mode to the user equipment. One of the two non-linear precoding modes is configured to use explicit beamformed channel state information, and the other one of the two non-linear precoding modes is configured to use explicit full downlink channel state information.
