Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes identifying a number of configured proactive repetitions in downlink transmissions from the base station, selecting k antenna states for receiving repetitive downlink transmissions among the number of antenna states, where k equals the number of configured proactive repetitions, and where each of the k antenna states corresponds to each of the repetitive downlink transmissions, transmitting a CSI report for each of the k antenna states to the base station, where a CSI report for an antenna state is used by the base station to adjust configurations for the corresponding downlink transmission, receiving signals for each of the k repetitive downlink transmissions from the base station using each of the k antenna states, and decoding the downlink transmission based on k sets of received signals, each of the k sets being received using each of the k selected antenna states.
