    Abstract: A method for reporting a channel state for a downlink channel to be transmitted via at least one two-dimensional array antenna element composed of a row antenna array and a column antenna array is disclosed in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. The method is performed by a terminal, and the method may comprise the steps of: receiving settings for channel state information (CSI) process 1 and CSI process 2, the CSI process 1 and the CSI process 2 each comprising a plurality of CSI-reference signal (RS) settings; selecting one of the CSI process 1 and the CSI process 2 if the CSI process 1 and the CSI process 2 have the same feedback cycle and offset; and estimating the downlink channel and reporting the channel estimation to a serving base station according to one selected from the CSI process 1 and the CSI process 2.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for a terminal for receiving a downlink signal from a plurality of cells according to the semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) method in a wireless communication system. Specifically, the method comprises the steps of: receiving, in a first subframe, a first or second type scheduling information indicating an activation, according to the SPS method, from a serving cell from among the plurality of cells; and, in the first subframe and a second subframe configured via a higher layer after the first subframe, receiving the downlink signal from one cell from among the plurality of cells in accordance with resource allocation information comprised in the first or the second type scheduling information, wherein the first type scheduling information comprises quasi co-location (QCL) information for the serving cell and the one cell, and the QCL information applied in the first and second subframes is updated in accordance with the type of the scheduling information.
