Abstract:
A technique for receiving and transmitting downlink reference signals is disclosed. When transmitting downlink data demodulation reference signals (DMRS) (or reference signals for downlink data demodulation) by using two or more layers, the DMRS of each layer may be multiplexed by using a code division multiplexing method and then transmitted. The DMRS for each of the two or more layers may be used for one user equipment or for two or more user equipments. And, downlink control signals for transmitting and receiving such DMRS may be configured to have the same format regardless of a single-user mode (or SU-MIMO mode) or a multi-user mode (or MU-MIMO mode), thereby being used.

Abstract:
A method of receiving a reference signal by a user equipment. A first channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS) configuration related to a discovery of a transmission point is received. A second CSI-RS configuration related to a CSI measurement is received. A CSI-RS according to the first CSI-RS configuration or the second CSI-RS configuration is received. Feedback information is transmitted to a base station. If the CSI-RS has been received according to the first CSI-RS configuration, the feedback information includes information on a CSI-RS received strength. If the CSI-RS has been received according to the second CSI-RS configuration, the feedback information includes a result of the CSI measurement.
Abstract:
A method of transmitting control information includes dividing frequency bandwidth into ranges to which the same PMI (precoding matrix index) is applied, obtaining multiple antenna information by the range to which the same PMI is applied and transmitting the multiple antenna information. Since multiple antenna information is transmitted by the unit of a range to which the same PMI is applied, radio resources allocated for transmitting the multiple antenna information may be reduced, thereby enhancing data transmission efficiency.
