Abstract:
1. A method for wireless communication, comprising: receiving, via radio resource control signaling, channel quality indicator (CQI) reporting configuration information comprising two or more offsets for aperiodic CQI reporting, wherein a first offset of the two or more offsets indicates an offset relative to a subframe carrying a CQI request and a second offset of the two or more offsets indicates when a corresponding CQI report should be sent; receiving, via a downlink control information message, a request for aperiodic CQI in a first subframe; determining a first CQI for a second subframe having the first offset from the first subframe, wherein the second subframe is allocated to a base station and has reduced or no interference from at least one interfering base station; determining a second CQI for at least one additional subframe prior to a third subframe having the second offset from the first subframe, wherein the at least one additional subframe is not allocated to the base station; and sending a report comprising the first and second CQIs in the third subframe.
