Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A method for receiving uplink control information (UCI), comprising: receiving a first channel state information (CSI) report for a CSI reference resource from a user equipment (UE) if triggered; and receiving a second CSI report for the CSI reference resource from the UE if triggered, wherein the second CSI report is computed from a channel measurement based on only a non-zero power CSI reference signal only on a single subframe within a configured CSI reference signal resource associated with a CSI process, wherein the first CSI report is computed from a channel measurement based on only non-zero power CSI reference signals within a configured CSI reference signal resource associated with a CSI process based on an unrestricted observation interval in time and frequency, wherein the single subframe is a subframe of the CSI reference resource, and the CSI reference resource for the second CSI report reported in uplink subframe n is defined by a valid downlink subframe n-k.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the valid downlink subframe is in a set of subframes for a channel measurement for the Type 2 CSI report.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the valid downlink subframe is in a set of subframes in which the non-zero power CSI reference signal is configured.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein a field in a downlink control information (DCI) specifies whether Type 2 aperiodic CSI reporting is triggered.
18. The method of claim 10 , wherein the Type 2 CSI report corresponds to a configured CSI process.
19. A base station configured for receiving uplink control information (UCI), comprising: a processor; memory in electronic communication with the processor; and instructions stored in the memory, the instructions being executable to: receive a first channel state information (CSI) report for a CSI reference resource from a user equipment (UE) if triggered; and receive a second CSI report for the CSI reference resource from the UE if triggered, wherein the second CSI report is computed from a channel measurement based on only a non-zero power CSI reference signal only on a single subframe within a configured CSI reference signal resource associated with a CSI process, wherein the first CSI report is computed from a channel measurement based on only non-zero power CSI reference signals within a configured CSI reference signal resource associated with a CSI process based on an unrestricted observation interval in time and frequency, wherein the single subframe is a subframe of the CSI reference resource, and the CSI reference resource for the second CSI report reported in uplink subframe n is defined by a valid downlink subframe n-k.
