Abstract

A base station capable of communicating with a user equipment (UE) includes a transceiver configured to transmit Channel State Information-Reference Signal (CSI-RS) according to a CSI-RS configuration comprising a number of antenna ports, and downlink signals containing the CSI-RS configuration and a precoding-matrix-construction configuration for precoding matrix indicator (PMI) reporting on physical downlink shared channels (PDSCH), the precoding-matrix-construction configuration comprising a first and second sampling factors, O1 and O2, and a first and second numbers, N1 and N2, receive, from the UE, uplink signals containing a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) derived using the CSI-RS according to the precoding-matrix-construction configuration, a controller configured to convert the PMI to one of predetermined precoding matrices. Other embodiments including UEs and methods are disclosed.
