Claim 18:
19. A method for wireless communications by a base station (BS), comprising:
providing a user equipment (UE) with a channel state information (CSI) report configuration, the CSI report configuration associated with one or more CSI reference signal (RS) resources, each CSI-RS resource comprising a set of ports or port groups, wherein the CSI report configuration explicitly configures a single subband size;
receiving a CSI-RS resource indicator (CRI) from the UE indicating at least two CSI-RS resources or at least one CSI-RS resource with at least two port groups, of the configured CSI-RS resources, for which the UE reports CSI; and
determining whether the UE omits at least a portion of the CSI based on the CRI and on whether the UE has sufficient available resources to report the CSI with the configured subband size, wherein the portion of the CSI comprises only a subband precoding matrix indicator (PMI) of the CSI-RS resource or port group associated with a weaker channel quality indicator (CQI) or the CSI for either even resource blocks (RBs) or odd RBs.
