A method for performing, by a UE, channel estimation in a wireless communication system includes: receiving, from an eNB, a control message including reference signal transmission pattern information representing a transmission pattern of a channel estimation reference signal (RS) transmitted through antenna ports; receiving the reference signal from the eNB on the basis of the received reference signal transmission pattern information; measuring a channel per antenna port of the eNB on the basis of the received reference signal; and feeding back channel state information related to the measured channel to the eNB.
