Abstract
A method of resource allocation for Channel State Information (CSI) feedback is provided, which comprises the following steps of: configuring, for a User Equipment (UE), a CSI feedback mode for each of a plurality of coordinated cells; allocating feedback resources required for CSI feedback by the UE for each of the plurality of coordinated cells based on the configured feedback modes, such that the CSI feedbacks for different coordinated cells will not collide with each other within one sub-frame; and notifying the configured feedback modes and the allocated feedback resources to the UE. In addition, a method of Channel State Information (CSI) feedback is provided, which comprises the following steps of: receiving, at a User Equipment (UE), from a Base Station (BS) information on configured feedback modes and allocated feedback resources for CSI feedback for a plurality of coordinated cells; feeding, by the UE, the CSI of the plurality of coordinated cells back to the BS over the allocated feedback resources based on the configured feedback modes; and solving, when feedback types underlying different feedback modes collide with each other within one sub-frame, the collision based on a collision solution rule.
