Resolving colliding signals
Systems and methods are disclosed herein that relate to transmitting and receiving a transmission when there is a collision between the transmission and reserved resource elements. In some embodiments, a radio access node for a cellular communications network is disclosed, wherein the radio access node comprises a transceiver, a processor, and memory storing instructions executable by the processor whereby the radio access node is operable to transmit, via the transceiver, a downlink transmission to a wireless device using one or more Physical Resource Blocks (PRBs) that comprise reserved Resource Elements (REs) by puncturing the downlink transmission at positions of the reserved REs. In some embodiments, the downlink transmission is an Enhanced Physical Downlink Control Channel (EPDCCH) transmission or a Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) transmission. Further, in some embodiments, the reserved REs are REs utilized for one or more CSI-RSs.
