Abstract:
A mode adaptation method for performing mode switching between a single-user MIMO (SU-MIMO) mode and a multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) mode includes reporting, by a base station, a MIMO feedback mode to a mobile station, receiving a feedback information determined on the basis of the MIMO feedback mode from the mobile station; and determining a MIMO feedback mode based on the feedback information. The MIMO feedback mode indicates whether it is single-user MIMO or multi-user MIMO and includes a number of mobile stations (MSs) transferred at one time. As a result, the method maximizes a system throughput simultaneously while effectively reducing an amount of feedback information.
Abstract:
A method for efficiently transmitting downlink control information is described. A method for transmitting control information in a multiple antenna system which can simultaneously transmit a maximum of two codewords includes transmitting modulation and coding scheme (MCS) information, a new data indicator (NDI) and a redundancy version (RV) for information blocks transmitted through the two codewords, and transmitting additional control information including at least one of a swapping indicator and enable/disable information. The swapping indicator indicates whether or not swapping occurs between the information blocks transmitted through the two codewords, and the enable/disable information indicates whether or not any one of transmissions through the two codewords is disabled. The swapping indicator is reserved when any one of transmissions through the two codewords is disabled, thereby reducing signaling overhead and efficiently transmitting necessary information.
Abstract:
A method for transmitting a plurality of control information through a PUCCH or a PUSCH is disclosed. The method includes transmitting first control information, and transmitting second control information. The transmission of the first control information and the transmission of the second control information are performed in units of one subframe and are performed once per predetermined period, respectively. In a subframe in which the transmission of the second control information is to be simultaneously performed with the transmission of the first control information, the second control information is excluded for transmission or the first and the second information are simultaneously transmitted, according to the configuration of a closed-loop system or an open-loop system.
Abstract:
A method for performing a precoding based on a generalized phase shift or a precoding based on an extended phase shift in a Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) system employing several sub-carriers, and a transceiver for supporting the same are disclosed. A phase-shift-based precoding matrix is generalized by multiplying a diagonal matrix for a phase shift by a unitary matrix for maintaining orthogonality between sub-carriers. In this case, a diagonal matrix part may be extended by multiplying a precoding matrix for removing interference between sub-carriers by a diagonal matrix for a phase shift. By generalization and extension of the phase-shift-based precoding, a transceiver is more simplified, and communication efficiency increases.

A method and device for transmitting a reference signal in a wireless communication system is provided. A base station maps each demodulation reference signal (DMRS) of each of a plurality of layers into a first resource element (RE) set and a second RE set including four REs over four orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols within a subframe, allocates first orthogonal cover codes (OCCs) having a length of 4 to each DMRS mapped into the first RE set, allocates second OCCs having a length of 4 to each DMRS mapped into the second resource element set and transmits each DMRS mapped into the first RE set and the second RE set. The subframe includes two slots and each slot includes six OFDM symbols. The second OCC are formed by swapping positions of bits that constitute the first OCCs.
