Patent ID: 8830856

Claim:
A communications apparatus, comprising: a processor; and a transceiver, for receiving one or more configuration messages carrying information regarding to a first sub-frame subset, a second sub-frame subset and a plurality of reporting parameters from a peer communications apparatus, wherein the processor at least comprises: a first processor logic unit for performing a channel state information measurement at the sub-frame(s) comprised in the first sub-frame subset configured by the peer communications apparatus to obtain a first measurement result; a second processor logic unit for performing a second channel state information measurement at the sub-frame(s) comprised in the second sub-frame subset configured by the peer communications apparatus to obtain a second measurement result; and a third processor logic unit for reporting the first measurement result and the second measurement result to the peer communications apparatus via the transceiver at one or more reporting instances, and, wherein the reporting instances are determined based on the reporting parameters; wherein the processor further comprises a fourth processor logic unit for determining whether to report at least one of the first and second measurement result according to a priority of the first measurement result, a priority of the second measurement result, a priority of at least one of the first sub-frame subset, and a priority of the second sub-frame subset when a first reporting instance for reporting the first measurement result collides with a second reporting instance for reporting the second measurement result.
