Abstract
An apparatus and method for CSI reporting in the unlicensed band are described. CRS-RSs are transmitted from a RAN in narrowband data channels in the unlicensed band to an eMTC UE. The UE determines the CQI and PMI from the CRS-RSs and transmits a periodic CSI report to the RAN that contains the CQI and PMI. The periodic CSI report is received at a nth subframe of a nth mframe, where nsatisfies nmod N=Nwhere Nis a reporting period in terms of mframes and Nis a reporting period offset in terms of mframes, and nsatisfies n−20=Nwhere Nis a reporting period offset in subframes.
