Abstract:
A method and apparatus for receiving a signal in a wireless communication system, which supports MU-MIMO scheme, is disclosed to maximize a signal-to-interference and noise ratio (SINR) for a received signal. The method for receiving a signal through a user equipment in a wireless communication system, which supports multi-user-MIMO (MU-MIMO) scheme, comprises the steps of calculating a channel matrix on the basis of a reference signal included in a signal received from a base station; calculating a first vector having maximum channel gain in a vector space formed by the channel matrix; determining a second vector, which minimizes a quantization error with the channel matrix, by using a precoding codebook; calculating a third vector located between the first vector and the second vector, indicating an effective channel having a maximum signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR) for the received signal; and processing the received signal by using a received weight vector determined on the basis of the third vector.
