Abstract

See full text

Aspects of the present disclosure provide a scheduling entity for facilitating Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) wireless communication by dynamically assigning ranks to scheduled entities for each sub-band of a slot. In some examples, the rank assigned to a particular scheduled entity may be increased or decreased between sub-bands of the slot based on the amount of scheduled user data traffic for that particular scheduled entity relative to the amount of scheduled user data traffic for other scheduled entities. The scheduling entity further schedules resources within the sub-bands of the slot based on the assigned ranks and transmits an enhanced control channel providing scheduling information indicating the scheduled resources to the scheduled entities.
