Abstract
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to techniques and methods for reporting channel state information (CSI) feedback for example for UEs capable of supporting evolved interference management traffic adaptation (eIMTA). In one aspect a method generally includes receiving signaling of a first uplink/downlink (UL/DL) subframe configuration for communicating with a base station (BS) receiving signaling of at least one channel state information (CSI) reporting configuration indicating at least two subframe sets where each subframe set is associated with an interference measurement resource (IMR) configuration detecting a collision of CSI reporting for the at least two subframe sets in an uplink subframe prioritizing one subframe set from the at least two subframe sets for CSI reporting in the uplink subframe and reporting CSI in the uplink subframe based on the prioritization.
