Abstract:
A method of transmitting an uplink reference signal of a user equipment (UE) in a multi-node system is described. The method according to an embodiment includes receiving a synchronization signal from a node; receiving a parameter for a virtual cell identifier(ID) from the node; generating an uplink demodulation reference signal(DM-RS) using the parameter for the virtual cell ID; and transmitting the generated uplink DM-RS to the node. A physical cell ID is a cell ID obtained from the synchronization signal, and the parameter for the virtual cell ID is a parameter used for generating the uplink DM-RS in the replacement of the physical cell ID.
Abstract:
A method performed by a base station (BS) is provided for receiving aperiodic channel state information (CSI). The BS transmits a CSI request field which is set to trigger a CSI report to a user equipment (UE), and receives CSI through a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) from the UE. The CSI request field has a value among a plurality of candidate values and the plurality of candidate values comprises a first value which triggers an aperiodic CSI report for a first set of reference signals and a second value which triggers an aperiodic CSI report for a second set of reference signals. The first set and the second set of reference signals are configured by a higher layer signal.
Abstract:
Provided are a method and apparatus for measuring interference in a wireless communication system. A terminal receives, from a base station, a zero-power channel state information (CSI) reference signal (RS) indicator that indicates whether or not to estimate interference using a zero-power CSI RS signal, and, according to the zero-power CSI RS indicator, measures interference on the basis of the zero-power CSI RS.
Abstract:
A method is provided for receiving a downlink control channel in a wireless communication system. A user equipment performs a blind decoding in a first search space on the cell to find a first Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH). The user equipment receives a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message including information on a second search space for monitoring a second PDCCH and identity information, and performs a blind decoding in the second search space on the cell to find the second PDCCH. The first PDCCH is demodulated based on a physical cell identity of the cell, and the second PDCCH is demodulated based on the identity information instead of the physical cell identity.

According to one aspect of the present invention, antennas or antenna nodes spaced away from each other by a predetermined distance or more are configured to be able to transmit control information of mutually different user equipment groups, thereby increasing the efficiency in the operation of control channels. In addition, according to another aspect of the present invention, a resource region for transmitting control information for an improved user equipment, which is a target of a multi-node cooperative transmission, is set differently from a resource region for transmitting control information for a legacy user equipment, thereby increasing the efficiency in the transmission of the control information for the improved user equipment.
Abstract:
Provided are a method and an apparatus for allocating a control channel in a wireless communication system. A base station allocates an enhanced physical downlink control channel (e-PDCCH) to a localized region within a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) region, allocates the e-PDCCH to a distributed region within the PDSCH region, and transmits a scheduling assignment via the allocated e-PDCCH.
Abstract:
A method is provided for transmitting aperiodic channel state information (CSI). A base station (BS) transmits, to a user equipment (UE), receiving a downlink control information (DCI) which includes a CSI request field; and performing aperiodic CSI reporting using a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) when a value of the CSI request field triggers an aperiodic CSI report. In addition, when the CSI request field is a multi-bit field, the CSI request field has a value among a first value which triggers an aperiodic CSI report for a first reference signal and a second value which triggers an aperiodic CSI report for a second reference signal. Furthermore, a resource of the first reference signal and a resource of the second reference signal are configured by a higher layer signal.

A method and a base station (BS) for receiving channel state information are discussed. The method according to an embodiment includes transmitting a radio resource control (RRC) signal to a user equipment (UE), the RRC signal including a plurality of configurations for periodic channel state information (CSI) reports; transmitting, to the UE, a plurality of CSI reference signals (CSI-RSs); and receiving, from the UE, generated CSI for the plurality of CSI-RSs based on the RRC signal. Each of the plurality of configurations for the periodic CSI reports includes an indicator indicating an uplink subframe to be used, by the UE, for transmitting CSI corresponding to a specific one of the periodic CSI reports.

An apparatus and method for controlling inter-cell interference is disclosed. The user equipment for controlling inter-cell interference in a wireless communication system includes an interference level measuring module configured to measure interference levels of neighboring cells using at least one of information about the number of antennas among antennas deployed in the neighboring cells, information about indexes of the effective antennas, and information about reference signal of the neighboring cells, an interference restriction request determination module configured to compare the interference levels of the neighboring cells with a predetermined threshold and to determine whether or not UE requests an interference restriction to the neighboring cells, and a transmitter configured to transmit information about one or more neighboring cells, to which the interference restriction request will be transmitted, to a serving base station.
