METHODS FOR NEIGHBOR CSI-RS DETECTION

摘要

Methods, systems, and devices are described for identifying channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS) from a non-serving cell in a wireless communications network. A subset of virtual cell identity (VCID) candidates may be identified, and one or more CSI-RS locations for one or more CSI-RS in a received signal from a non-serving cell may be determined The CSI-RS locations may be determined based on periodicity properties of CSI-RS transmissions of the subset of VCID candidates. The one or more determined locations in the received signal may be used to identify the one or more CSI-RS in the received signal through searching the locations for all available VCIDs in a set of VCIDs.

1. A method for identifying one or more channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) from a non-serving cell in a wireless communications network, comprising:
identifying a subset of virtual cell identity (VCID) candidates; determining one or more CSI-RS locations for one or more CSI-RS in a received signal from a non-serving cell based on the subset of VCID candidates; and identifying one or more CSI-RS in the received signal based on the one or more CSI-RS locations.
