Apparatus, methods, and computer-readable media for facilitating CSI feedback in multiple-TRP communication are disclosed herein. An example method of wireless communication by a UE includes receiving, from a base station, a report configuration message triggering a channel state feedback procedure, the UE and the base station operating in a multiple transmission and reception point (multiple-TRP) communication mode, the report configuration message requesting a multiple-TRP transmission value including at least one of a quantity of layer indicator (LI) values and a strongest TRP indicator (STI) value. The example method also includes generating channel state information (CSI) information based on the receiving of the report configuration message, the CSI information including the multiple-TRP transmission value. The example method also includes transmitting, to the base station, a report including the generated CSI information.

Methods and apparatus to facilitate CSI feedback in multiple-TRP communication

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. An encoding device may encode a set of source symbols using one or more raptor codes to generate a first set of encoded symbols and may transmit the first set of encoded symbols to a decoding device. The decoding device may successfully recover a source symbol of the set of source symbols from the first set of encoded symbols and may transmit an indication of the source symbol to the encoding device. The encoding device may encode one or more source symbols of the set of source symbols using the one or more raptor codes to generate a second set of encoded symbols based on receiving the indication of the source symbol and may transmit the second set of encoded symbols to the decoding device.

Raptor code feedback

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may transmit an encoded transmission via a broadcast to multiple user equipment (UE). Subsequently, the multiple UEs may transmit assistance information to the base station based on attempting to decode the broadcasted encoded transmission. If the decoding is unsuccessful for at least one UE, the base station may then transmit an additional encoded transmission via a unicast or multicast message to the UEs that were unsuccessful. Additionally, the base station may transmit configuration information for the multiple UEs to receive the encoded transmissions and to transmit the assistance information. For example, the configuration information may include portion information for how long the encoded transmission is transmitted via the broadcast, via the unicast, when to transmit the assistance information, etc. In some cases, the configuration information may be based on UE metrics of the multiple UEs.

Joint broadcast and unicast design for multiple-input multiple-output systems

A method and an access network node are disclosed for beam control. According to an embodiment, the access network node determines first spatial domain information of a channel between a first terminal device and the access network node, based on second spatial domain information of the channel estimated by uplink signals received previously from the first terminal device at multiple time points. The access network node determines beamforming weights for the first terminal device based on the first spatial domain information.
