Abstract:
A method of allocating control information in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes: allocating essential control information of a first system to a first sub-frame in a frame including a plurality of sub-frames each of which comprises a plurality of orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols; and allocating essential control information of a second system to an nth sub-frame in a fixed position from the first sub-frame (where n is an integer satisfying n>1). Accordingly, in a frame supporting heterogeneous systems, essential control information can be fixedly allocated to a specific position while maintaining the number of system switching points, at which switching occurs between the systems, to one even if a radio resource allocation amount changes between the systems, and thus the essential control information that must be received by all user equipments can be effectively provided without the increase of overhead.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a wireless communication system, and more specifically, to a method and a device for reporting channel state information. According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method for allowing a terminal to report channel state information (CSI) in a wireless communication system comprises the steps of: reporting a rank indicator (RI); dropping a report of a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) after the RI has been reported; and reporting a channel quality indicator (CQI) after the PMI report has been dropped. Here, a rank value corresponding to the RI may be a changed rank value compared to a rank value corresponding to the most recently reported RI before the RI report. Furthermore, the CQI can be determined on the basis of another precoding matrix, rather than a precoding matrix corresponding to the dropped PMI.
