- ⁇ may be expressed as follows using the diagonal matrix P of the transmission power.
- ⁇ transmission signals ⁇ ⁇ , ⁇ ⁇ , ..., ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ that are actually transmitted are formed by applying the weight matrix W to the information vector S whose transmission power is adjusted.

- rank is not zero when singular value decomposition. It can be defined as the number of outliers.
- rank in the channel matrix The physical meaning of is the maximum number of different information that can be sent on a given channel.
- 'rank' for MIM0 transmission refers to the number of paths that can independently transmit a signal at a specific time point and a specific frequency resource, and 'number of layers' It represents the number of signal streams transmitted through each path.
- the transmitting end since the transmitting end transmits a number of layers corresponding to the number of tanks used for signal transmission, unless otherwise specified, a tank has the same meaning as the number of layers.
- a signal When a packet is transmitted in a wireless communication system, a signal may be distorted in the transmission process because the transmitted packet is transmitted through a wireless channel. In order to correctly receive the distorted signal at the receiving end, the distortion must be corrected in the received signal using the channel information. In order to find out the channel information, a signal known to both the transmitting side and the receiving side is transmitted, and a method of finding the channel information with a distortion degree when the signal is received through the channel is mainly used. The signal is called a pilot signal or a reference signal.
- FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an exemplary pattern of CRS and DRS on one RB pair.
- the base station may be maximum of four or more in the LTE-A system.
- the RS for these antenna ports should be further defined.
- both RS for channel measurement and RS for data demodulation should be considered.
- the CSI-RS for channel measurement purposes is a channel, unlike the CRS in the existing LTE system used for data demodulation at the same time as channel measurement, handover measurement, and the like. There is a feature designed for measurement-oriented purposes. Of course, the CSI-RS may also be used for the purpose of measuring handover. Since the CSI-RS is transmitted only for obtaining the channel state information, unlike the CRS in the existing LTE system, the CSI-RS does not need to be transmitted every subframe. Thus, to reduce the overhead of the CSI-RS, the CSI-RS may be designed to be transmitted intermittently (eg, periodically) on the time axis.
- DMRS may be transmitted for four antenna ports (antenna port indexes 7, 8, 9, and 10) which are additionally defined in the LTE-A system.
- DMRSs for different antenna ports may be distinguished by being located in different frequency resources (subcarriers) and / or different time resources (OFDM symbols) (ie, may be multiplexed in FDM and / or TDM schemes).
- OFDM symbols time resources
- DMRSs for different antenna ports located on the same time-frequency resource are orthogonal to each other.
- DMRSs for antenna ports 7 and 8 may be located in resource elements (REs) indicated as DMRS CDM group 1, and they may be multiplexed by an orthogonal code.
- DMRSs for antenna ports 9 and 10 may be located in resource elements indicated as DMRS group 2 in the example of FIG. 7, which may be multiplexed by an orthogonal code.
- the same precoding applied to the data is applied to the DMRS. Accordingly, the channel information estimated by the DMRS (or UE-specific RS) in the terminal is precoded channel information.
- the UE can easily perform data demodulation using the precoded channel information estimated through DMRS.
- the terminal since the terminal cannot know the precoding information applied to the DMRS, the terminal cannot obtain channel information that is not precoded from the DMRS.
- the terminal uses a separate reference signal other than the DMRS, that is, the aforementioned CSI-RS. Channel information that is not precoded may be obtained.
- FIGS. 8 (a) to 8 (e) show the location of a resource element on which a CSI-RS is transmitted on one resource block pair in which downlink data is transmitted (in the case of a general CP, 12 subcarriers on 14 OFDM symbols X frequencies in time). .
- one of the CSI-RS patterns of FIGS. 8 (a) to 8 (e) may be used.

- CSI-RSs for antenna ports 21 and 22 may be located in resource elements indicated as CSI-RS CDM group 4, which may be multiplexed by an orthogonal code.
- the base station should transmit CSI-RS for all antenna ports. Transmitting CSI-RS for each subframe for up to 8 transmit antenna ports has a disadvantage in that the overhead is too large. Therefore, CSI-RS is not transmitted every subframe but is transmitted intermittently on the time axis. Can be reduced. Accordingly, the CSI-RS may be periodically transmitted with an integer multiple of one subframe or may be transmitted in a specific transmission pattern.
- CSI-RS pattern a sequence used for CSI-RS purposes, which are pseudo-random according to a predetermined rule based on slot number, cell ID, CP length, etc.). Generated), and the like. That is, a plurality of CSI-RS configurations may be used in a given base station, and the base station may inform a CSI-RS configuration to be used for terminal (s) in a cell among the plurality of CSI-RS configurations.
- the CSI-RS is periodically transmitted with an integer multiple of one subframe (for example, 5 subframe periods, 10 subframe periods, 20 subframe periods, 40 subframe periods, or 80 subframe periods). Can be.
- the CSI reference resource may be configured on a valid downlink subframe.
- the valid downlink subframe may be configured as a subframe satisfying various requirements. One of the requirements is for the UE in case of periodic CSI reporting. If the CSI subframe set is configured, it will be a subframe belonging to the CSI subframe set linked to the periodic CSI report.
- the UE may derive the CQI index in consideration of the following assumptions (see 3GPP TS 36.213 for details):
- DMRS overhead matches the most recently reported tank.
- DMRS overhead is 12 REs for one resource block pair is 12 RE in the case of two or more antenna ports (ie, rank 2 or less) as described in FIG.
- 24 RE so the CQI index can be calculated assuming a DMRS overhead based on the most recently reported rank value.
- the PDSCH transmission scheme depends on the transmission mode currently configured for the terminal (may be the default mode)
- the base station can be informed to the terminal using RRCX Radio Resource Control (RSC) signaling. That is, information on the CSI-RS configuration may be provided to each of the terminals in the cell by using dedicated RRC signaling.

- CSI-RS configuration IE of Table 2 refer to standard document TS 36.331.
- the MIM0 method may be classified into an open-loop method and a closed loop method.
- the open loop MIM0 scheme means that the transmitter performs MIM0 transmission without feedback of the channel state information from the MIM0 receiver.
- the closed-loop MIM0 scheme means that the MIM0 transmission is performed by the transmitter by receiving the channel state information from the MIM0 receiver.

- the channel state information (CSI) fed back to the base station by the terminal may include a tank indicator (RI), a precoding matrix index (PMI) and a channel quality indicator (CQI).
- RI is information about a channel tank.
- a tank of channels refers to the maximum number of layers (or streams) that can send different information through the same time-frequency resources. Since the rank value is determined primarily by the long-term fading of the channel, it can be fed back over a generally longer period (ie less frequently) compared to PMI and CQI.
- the PMI is information about a precoding matrix used for transmission from a transmitter and is a value reflecting spatial characteristics of a channel.
- Precoding means mapping a transmission layer to a transmission antenna, and a layer-antenna mapping relationship may be determined by a precoding matrix.

It can be calculated assuming that the PDSCH can be received without exceeding (for example, 0.1).
- the CQI is a value that reflects the received SINR obtained when the base station configures a spatial channel using the PMI.
- the CQI may be calculated based on the most recently reported RI and / or PMI.
- an additional multiuser diversity is obtained by using a multiuser-MIM0 (MU-MIM0) scheme.
- MU-MIM0 multiuser-MIM0
- the MIM0 scheme since an interference channel exists between terminals multiplexed in an antenna domain, when a base station performs downlink transmission using channel state information fed back by one terminal among multiple users, it is transmitted to another terminal. It is necessary to prevent interference from occurring. Therefore, in order for the MU-MIM0 operation to be performed correctly, the channel state information with higher accuracy than the single user-MIM0 (SU-MIM0) method should be fed back.
- SU-MIM0 single user-MIM0
- a new CSI feedback scheme that improves the existing CSI composed of RI, PMI, and CQI may be applied.
- the precoding information fed back by the receiving end may be indicated by a combination of two PMIs (eg, il and i2). Accordingly, more sophisticated PMI can be fed back, and more sophisticated CQI can be calculated and reported based on this sophisticated PMI.
- the CSI may be periodically transmitted through the PUCCH or may be transmitted periodically through the PUSCH. Also, which of RI, first PMI (e.g., W1), second PMI (e.g., W2), CQI is fed back, whether the fed back PMI and / or CQI is for wideband (WB) or Depending on whether it is for a subband (SB), various reporting modes can be defined.

- the existing 3GPP LTE system supports only horizontal beamforming, and defines a reporting method when PUCCH is used for CSI reporting as follows.
- the codebook for 8Tx transmission is designed based on two indicators (first indicator () and second indicator (i2)).
- the PUCCH report mode uses the first indicator and the second indicator in three ways. You can report it.
- the first method is a method of simultaneously reporting a second indicator (i 2 ) and a CQI after reporting the first indicator ().
- the second method is a method of simultaneously reporting a first indicator (), a second indicator (i 2 ), and a CQI.
- the third method is to define a specific indicator (eg, Precoding Type Indicator (PTI)) on whether the first indicator () is reported and apply a different reporting method accordingly. If the specific indicator indicates that the first indicator (h) is reported, the first indicator () is reported at a predetermined time, and then the second indicator (i 2 ) and the CQI are simultaneously reported. If the specific indicator indicates that the first indicator () is not reported, the second indicator (i 2 ) and the CQI are simultaneously reported at a predetermined time (in this case, without the first indicator ( ⁇ ;! Since it is not possible to determine the specific precoding vector / matrix by the second indicator (i 2 ) alone, it is possible to determine or indicate the specific precoding vector / matrix by assuming that the first indicator ( ⁇ ) previously reported is used).
- a specific indicator eg, Precoding Type Indicator (PTI)
- a specific indicator (or flag indicator) indicating whether or not to report PMKV-PMI for vertical beamforming is defined.
- This specific indicator is called a V-PMI Reporting Type Indicator (RTI).
- the V-PMI RTI may be included in the CSI transmitted by the UE through the PUCCH. Also, depending on the value of the V-PMI RTI, the UE may or may not perform the V-PMI report (or, depending on whether the UE performs or does not perform the V-PMI report). Can also be determined).
- the V-PMI RTI is set to a first value (or a value indicating On)
- the V-PMI may be reported after the V-PMI RTI is reported.
- the H-PMI may be reported.
- V-PMI and H-PMI may be reported at the same time.
- part of the H-PMI together with the V-PMI may be reported at the same time, and then the remaining part of the H-PMI may be reported (for example, after V-PMI and H-PMI ⁇ l are reported simultaneously).
- H-PMI 2 and CQI may be reported simultaneously).
- the precoder for vertical bump forming assumes that the precoder indicated by the V—PMI most recently reported (eg the last reported before the V-PMI RTI report) is used as is. can do.
- the precoder for vertical beamforming may use a precoder indicated by a specific V-PMI set as a default. The default V-PMI may be the V-PMI with the lowest number (or index).
- the V-PMI RTI may be reported in conjunction with the RI.
- V-PMI is assumed to be selected / determined based on tank-1, and the reported RI may be used to indicate the rank value upon which H-PMI is selected / determined (e.g., V Regardless of whether the value of the PMI RTI indicates On or Off, the RI may indicate the transmission tank value associated with the H-PMI reported thereafter).
- the reported RI may be a precoding vector / matrix indicated by a combination of V-PMI and H-PMI (or a precoding vector / matrix indicated by V-PMI and a precoding vector indicated by H-PMI). Indicates the tank value of the matrix combination (e.g., the precoding vector / matrix resulting from the ronecker product) May be used.
- the V-PMI RTI may be reported before the RI.
- the V-PMI is assumed to be selected / determined based on rank -1, and the reported RI indicates the tank value that is the basis for the selection / decision of the H-PMI (ie, the tank value associated with the H-PMI).
- the reporting period of the V-PMI RTI may be determined by an integer multiple of the reporting period of the RI, and the fact that the V-PMI RTI is reported before the RI is offset based on a predetermined reporting time (for example, the RI reporting time). It can be indicated as an (offset) value.
- the fourth embodiment relates to a method of supporting legacy MIM0 operation when vertical bump forming is applied.
- Legacy MIM0 operation refers to MIM0 transmission techniques that were defined in a system before vertical bumpforming was introduced (eg, a system supporting only horizontal beamforming).
- MIM0 transmission schemes include single antenna port transmission technique, transmit diversity technique, spatial multiplexing technique, closed-loop MIM0 technique, single-layer beamforming technique, double-layer bumpforming technique, multi-layer beamforming Techniques are defined.
- the basic transmission method is a single antenna port transmission technique and a transmit diversity technique.
- a single antenna port transmission scheme is used when one CRS port is used, a space—frequency block code (SFBC) scheme is used, and four CRS ports are used when two CRS ports are used.
- SFBC space—frequency block code
- FSTD Frequency Switched Transmit Diversity
- the CRS may be used for RSRP (Reference Signal Received Power) / RSSRQ (Reference Signal Received Quality) measurement for cell selection or CQI as information for link adaptation.
- RSRP Reference Signal Received Power
- RSSRQ Reference Signal Received Quality
- the passive antenna When the passive antenna is used, single vertical bump forming is applied, and the same vertical beamforming is performed for all of the CRS, CSI-RS, DMRS (or UE-specific RS), synchronization signal, control channel, data channel, and the like. Because it is applied (or can be expressed without any vertical bump forming), it has the same coverage in the vertical domain.
- variable beamforming is possible for the vertical domain.
- different vertical beamforming may be applied to RSCCRS, CSI-RS, DMRS (or UE-specific RS, etc.), a synchronization signal control channel, a data channel, and the like.
- RSCCRS RSCCRS
- CSI-RS CSI-RS
- DMRS UE-specific RS
- a synchronization signal control channel a data channel, and the like.
- legacy technique does not consider the application of vertical beamforming itself, the application of vertical beamforming may cause ambiguity to the operation of legacy entities (UE, eNB, etc.). This problem may occur.
- legacy entities UE, eNB, etc.
- This embodiment describes a CQI calculation scheme that assumes transmission diversity based on multiple vertical beamforming (or vertical electric tilting, or simply vertical tilting).
- CSI feedback for DMRS-based data transmission is divided into a case of reporting a PMI and a case of not reporting a PMI.
- PMI and CQI based thereon may be reported.
- CQI may be reported without PMI.
- the base station measures the precoding weight through an uplink reference signal
- the UE measures the CQI without the PMI. Can be reported.
- the terminal does not report the PMI, the CQI may be measured and reported on the assumption of an open-loop spatial multiplexing scheme or a transmit diversity scheme.
- the SNR is improved by a predetermined level (for example, 3 dB). Can be used by correcting the CQI reported by the UE.
- the SNR may have a significant difference (eg, OdB to 6dB). That is, a range in a fixed direction may be measured as a high SNR due to the concentrated signal strength at some locations, but may be measured as a low SNR since the signal strength is measured at other locations. Accordingly, when fixed beamforming is applied in the vertical domain, the CQI calculation value is greatly different according to the user position.
- the existing passive antenna can be regarded as using a fixed beam pattern in the vertical domain.
- the CRS is transmitted in a fixed range pattern (as in a legacy system), and variable vertical beamforming is applied to DMRS-based data transmission.
- the CMI is calculated based on the CRS when the PMI is not reported, there is a problem in that the SNR greatly varies depending on the position of the user due to the application of fixed beamforming in the vertical domain.
- the present invention proposes the following methods.
- the SNR may be calculated according to the vertical beamforming direction (or vertical tilting).
- vertical beamforming (or vertical tilting) information may be delivered to the terminal through higher layer (eg, RRC) signaling.

- RS reference signal
- CSI-RS may be used, or a CRS for measurement purposes different from the previously defined CRS may be used.
- vertical bump forming may be expressed as a weighted vector for vertical domain beamforming.
- the vertical beamforming is, by applying vertical tilting differently for each CRS, the CRS from a different cell from the standpoint of the UE (also referred to as a different vertical bumpforming (or vertical tilting) is applied). It can also be recognized.
- the terminal may be configured to calculate / select the CSI for the vertical domain sectors corresponding to each CSI-RS configuration.
- a new transmission mode can be defined for vertical beamforming.
- the new transmission mode includes a precoding technique for performing vertical beamforming and horizontal beamforming, and a fallback technique that can operate without feedback information. It may be configured as.
- the fallback technique is a basic operation that can be performed without special configuration when there is a problem in communication.
- the fallback scheme may be defined as using a precoding vector / matrix for vertically bumping corresponding to the case where the V-PMI index is 0 and applying a single antenna transmission gibbon.
- the fallback technique may be applied as a transmission scheme based on vertical domain sectorization using open-loop transmission.
- a fixed precoding weight may be used as the vertical domain.
- the weighting vector for the vertical domain for the legacy MIM0 scheme is applied.
- Equation 41 For example, assume a two-dimensional antenna array in which four antenna elements exist in the vertical domain and four antenna elements exist in the horizontal domain.
- four antenna ports of the horizontal domain may be configured by applying a specific (or default) weight vector of the vertical domain.

- H k is the spatial channel for k and k is the antenna port index.
- H ae is a spatial channel vector / matrix composed by H ran .
- H ran is the spatial channel for antenna elements (m, n), m is the antenna element index in the vertical domain, and n is the antenna element index in the horizontal domain.
- W v is a specific (or default) weight vector / matrix for vertical domain beamforming.
- vertical sectorization may be applied in the time domain. For example, if a time unit to which resources are allocated is called a subframe, different vertical bump forming (or vertical tilting) may be applied for each subframe.
- different vertical beamforming may be applied in each subframe unit.
- the bitmap may be used to distinguish subframe (s) to which the first vertical bump forming (or vertical tilting) is applied and subframe (s) to which the second vertical bump forming (or vertical tilting) is applied. It may be.
