Abstract:
A method for feeding back channel information, the method including if one or more cells are configured, performing a first feedback process and a second feeding process. The first feedback process is configured to transmit channel information including rank information The second feedback process is configured to transmit channel information including rank information which is the same as the rank information of the first feedback process.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for transmitting a downlink reference signal in a wireless communication system supporting multiple antennas is disclosed. A method for transmitting Channel State Information-Reference Signals (CSI-RSs) for eight or less antenna ports includes selecting one of a plurality of CSI-RS Resource Element (RE) groups defined on a data region of a downlink subframe and mapping CSI-RSs for the eight or less antenna ports to the selected CSI-RS RE group, and transmitting the downlink subframe in which the CSI-RSs for the eight or less antenna ports are mapped. The plurality of CSI-RS RE groups is defined such that a transmission diversity RE pair for data transmitted on the downlink subframe is not broken.
