Estimating channel information

Disclosed is a method of providing channel state information for a desired downlink channel of a wireless communication system. In a configuration phase, the method comprises receiving on a signaling channel configuration information comprising an identifier of an interference source and an association which associates the identifier with at least one resource element not used for transmission on the desired downlink channel. In an estimation phase, the method comprises estimating channel state information for an expected transmission on the desired downlink channel accounting for an incoming interference transmission from the identified interference source as observed from the at least one resource element. In a reporting phase, the method comprises reporting the channel state information.
