Abstract:
A method for performing hierarchical beamforming in a wireless access system and a device therefor are disclosed. Particularly, the method comprises: an initial step for allowing a base station to transmit a plurality of first beams, to which different steering vectors are applied, to a terminal through corresponding reference signals, and a repetition step for allowing the base station to transmit a plurality of second beams, to which different steering vectors are applied, to the terminal through corresponding reference signals by considering feedback information that contains an index of one or more beams received from the terminal, wherein the repetition step can be repeated up to a predetermined number of times.
Abstract:
A method for transmitting channel status information (CSI) via uplink in a wireless communication system includes transmitting a first precoding matrix indicator (PMI) and a second PMI at a subframe. A subsampled codebook for each of a precoding codebook for Rank-1 and a precoding codebook for Rank-2 is determined based on at least the first PMI or the second PMI. In case of the Rank-1 or the Rank-2, a number of elements for the first PMI is 8.
Abstract:
A method for transmitting channel status information (CSI) of downlink transmission via uplink in a wireless communication system includes transmitting a rank indicator (RI) and a precoder type indicator (PTI) at a first subframe, transmitting at a second subframe a first precoding matrix indicator (PMI) when the PTI has a first value and transmitting a second PMI and a wideband channel quality indicator (WB CQI) when the PTI has a second value, and transmitting at a third subframe a second PMI and a WB CQI when the PTI has a first value and transmitting a subband (SB) CQI and a second PMI when the PTI has a second value. A user equipment (UE) preferred precoding matrix is indicated by a combination of the first PMI and the second PMI. Subsampled codebooks of precoding codebooks of individual Rank-2, Rank-3 and Rank-4 are applied to the second PMI.
