Abstract:
A method for transmitting signals to reduce feedback overhead and a method for transmitting feedback information for the same are described. In transmitting signals through precoding, different codebook subsets are used in an open-loop transmission mode and a closed-loop transmission mode, thereby reducing feedback overhead. In this case, it is assumed that the codebook subsets for the respective transmission modes are optimized according to each transmission mode.

A data transmission method for multiple users having multiple receive antennas is provided. The method includes selecting a receive antenna among the multiple receive antennas for each user, performing DPC (Dirty Paper Coding) from the multiple transmit antennas to the receive antenna and transmitting a transmission signal on which the DPC is performed. Since DPC is implemented through a receive antenna selected among multiple receive antennas, complexity is not much increased although the DPC is applied to a MIMO system.
