According UE is configured to receive a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) from an evolved Universal Terrestrial Radio Access Network (E-UTRAN) Node B (eNB), determine channel state information based on the CSI-RS, and send the channel state information to the eNB. The channel state information includes a precoding matrix indicator corresponding to a first precoding matrix. The UE is also configured to receive a UE specific reference (UE-RS) signal and a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) signal. The UE-RS is precoded with a second precoding matrix. The UE estimates a UE-RS effective channel including the second precoding matrix based on the UE-RS and decodes data from the PDSCH signal based on an the first precoding matrix and the UE-RS effective channel.
