Abstract  Abstract

Systems and methodologies are described herein that facilitate the generation and use of separable hierarchical channel state feedback in a wireless communication system. As described herein in the event that multiple network nodes cooperate to conduct downlink transmissions to a network user channel state feedback as reported by the network user can be separated into intra-node feedback relating to per-node channel conditions and inter-node feedback relating to relative phase and/or amplitude between channels corresponding to respective nodes. Further a network user can select to report intra-node feedback and/or inter-node feedback based on network instructions a cooperation strategy to be utilized by respective network nodes or the like. As additionally described herein respective codebooks on which inter-node and intra-node channel feedback is based can be configured to convey information relating to a partial channel description and/or to vary based on resource units (e.g. sub-bands resource blocks etc.) utilized for downlink communication.
