Each CSI Resource Setting may be located in the DL BWP identified by the higher layer parameter BWP-id, and all CSI Resource Settings linked to a CSI Report Setting may have the same DL BWP.”) It would have been obvious for one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to have modified the “ CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION TRANSMISSION METHOD AND APPARATUS, TERMINAL, AND NETWORK-SIDE DEVICE” proposed by JIANG to include the concept of “ the fourth information is provided by: a downlink control information (DCI) format by indicating an index from one or more lists of indexes from the first number of CSI report sub-configurations, a medium access control control element (MAC CE), or a radio resource control (RRC) message, fifth information related to an uplink (UL) channel for transmitting the CSI report, and the one or more NZP CSI-RSs based on the first information; ” of TSENG . One of ordinary skill in the art would have been motivated to make this modification in order to improve the overall performance of the wireless communication system by reducing the signaling overhead, leading to an enhanced resource allocation and optimization [0212]. Regarding Claim 2, JIANG and TSENG combination teach the limitations of Claim 1. JIANG further teaches, The method of claim 1, wherein: the association between the one or more NZP CSI-RSs and the respective first number of CSI report sub-configurations is provided by a list of NZP CSI-RS indexes from the CSI-RS resource set, the list of NZP CSI-RS indexes is provided in a CSI report sub-configuration, and an NZP CSI-RS resource is associated with at most one CSI report sub-configuration. -Paragraph [0159-0160] ([0159-0160] recites, “a configuration of the CSI report #n includes L sub-configurations , and each sub-configuration corresponds to one spatial adaptation pattern (spatial adaptation pattern ).

In this example, the CSI reporting capability reported by the UE is 3, that is, the UE allows the CSI report #n to include a maximum of three pieces of CSI. In this case, a quantity of bits of the CSI part of the CSI report #n is fixed to a size of the CSI part1 of the three pieces of CSI . If the network-side device configures the UE to report two pieces of CSI for two NZP CSI-RS resource groups (respectively NZP CSI-RS resource group 0 and NZP CSI-RS resource group 1 , where NZP CSI- RS resource group 0 includes resource 0 , 1 , 2 , and 3 , and NZP CSI-RS resource group 1 includes resource 4 , 5 , 6 , and 7” ) Regarding Claim 5, JIANG and TSENG combination teach the limitations of Claim 1. JIANG further teaches, The method of claim 1, wherein a CSI sub-report includes two parts: a first part includes a rank indicator (RI), a CSI-RS resource indicator (CRI), and a channel quality indicator (CQI) for a first codeword when the second information indicates to report respective report quantities for the corresponding CSI report sub-configuration , -Paragraph [0060-0061] ([0060-0061] recites, “CSI reporting includes two parts , where a CSI part 1 has a fixed payload size and is used to identify a quantity of information bits in a CSI part 2 . The CSI part 1 should be completely transmitted before the CSI part 2 . For the Type I CSI feedback, the CSI part1 includes the following information: an RI (if reported), a CRI (if reported), and a CQI of a first codeword . The CSI part2 includes a PMI (if reported) and includes a CQI of a second codeword when the RI (if reported) is greater than 4. and a second part includes a CQI for a second codeword when the RI is larger than 4, a layer indicator (LI), and precoding matrix indicator (PMI) when the second information indicates to report the respective report quantities for the corresponding CSI report sub-configuration . -Paragraph [0061-0062] ([0061-0062] recites, “The CSI part2 includes a PMI (if reported) and includes a CQI of a second codeword when the RI (if reported) is greater than 4 . For the Type II CSI feedback, the CSI part 1 includes an RI (if reported), a CQI, and an indicator of a non-zero wideband amplitude coefficient at each layer of Type II CSI , and fields included in the CSI part 1 are independently coded. The CSI part 2 includes a PMI of Type II CSI. Both the CSI part 1 and the CSI part 2 are independently coded.”) Regarding Claim 7, JIANG and TSENG teach the limitations of Claim 1. JIANG further teaches, The method of claim 1, wherein: a CSI report sub-configuration includes a power offset value, and the power offset value is commonly applied to respective power offset values of a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) resource element (RE) to NZP CSI-RS RE of the one or more NZP CSI-RSs associated with the first number of CSI report sub-configurations -Paragraph [0026, 0130] ([0026] recites, “The at least two spatial adaptation patterns or the at least two sub-configurations are in a one-to-one correspondence with the at least two pieces of CSI, and the second information includes at least one of the following: a sub-configuration identifier , a spatial adaptation pattern identifier, a resource-related identifier, a codebook configuration identifier, a code division multiplexing group identifier, a code division multiplexing group quantity, a port quantity, a power offset , or a first quantity…” [0130] recites,” For example, the foregoing power offset may be a power offset of a PDSCH relative to the CSI-RS . The foregoing CSI-RS resource group identifier may be a Non-Zero Power (NZP) CSI-RS resource group identifier . The foregoing CSI-RS resource identifier may be an NZP CSI-RS resource identifier…”) Claim 8 is the Apparatus Claim corresponding to the method claim 1.

In terms of a reporting manner, a CSI report includes a plurality of CSI reports. As shown in FIG. 9 , a quantity of CPUs occupied by each first CSI report is related to a quantity of resources in a resource set of a spatial adaptation pattern corresponding to the first CSI report, that is, a 32-port CSI report occupies one CPU, a 16-port CSI report occupies two CPUs, and an 8-port CSI report occupies four CPUs. For a CPU occupied by a CSI report corresponding to a sub-configuration in each CSI report , the occupancy starts from a sending time of a resource corresponding to a spatial adaptation pattern (sub-configuration) .”) It would have been obvious for one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to have modified the “ CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION TRANSMISSION METHOD AND APPARATUS, TERMINAL, AND NETWORK-SIDE DEVICE” proposed by JIANG to include the concept of “ determining CSI processing unit (CPU) occupancy, wherein the CPU occupancy is counted by summing a number of NZP CSI-RSs associated with a corresponding CSI report sub-configuration over the second number of CSI report sub-configurations.” of JIANG2 .
