Abstract:
To perform rate matching appropriately even when downlink signals are transmitted from a plurality of transmission points to a user terminal, a radio communication system having a user terminal capable of coordinate multi-point transmission and reception with several radio base stations is provided. A radio base station transmits downlink control information including bit information defining a predetermined rate matching pattern to the user terminal. The user terminal receives the downlink control information and performs rate matching based on the bit information defining the rate matching pattern. A combination of a cell-specific reference signal pattern and an interference measurement reference signal pattern in the case of transmission from several radio base stations each using an MBSFN subframe or NCT is defined in predetermined bits. The user terminal performs rate matching based on the bit information and the subframe configuration and interference measurement reference signal pattern of the radio base station.
Abstract:
The present invention is designed so that it is possible to feed back channel state information (CSI) that is suitable for downlink communication in which 3D beams are used. The radio communication method of the present invention is a radio communication method to allow a radio base station to carry out downlink communication with a user terminal by using a 3D beam that is formed with a horizontal beam having directivity in a horizontal plane and a vertical beam having directivity in a vertical plane, and has the steps in which the radio base station transmits a plurality of measurement reference signals that are pre-coded using different precoding weights between a plurality of vertical beams, and the user terminal transmits channel state information that is generated based on the plurality of measurement reference signals, to the radio base station.
Abstract:
The present invention is designed to, upon updating CQIs that are fed back, prevent the increase of the overhead of feedback information, and still improve the accuracy of the updated CQIs when CoMP transmission is applied. The radio communication system of the present invention is formed with a plurality of radio base station apparatuses and a user terminal that is configured to be able to perform coordinated multiple point transmission/reception with the plurality of radio base station apparatuses, and the user terminal acquires channel state information of multiple cells, generates feedback information such that the channel state information of multiple cells is allotted and transmitted in a plurality of subframes, and feeds back the generated feedback information to the radio base station apparatus of one of the multiple coordinated points, using a physical uplink shared data channel.
Abstract:
The present invention is designed to prevent the decrease of throughput and also reduce the overhead of CSI feedback when CoMP transmission is applied. In a radio communication system including a plurality of radio base station apparatuses and a user terminal that is configured to be able to carry out coordinated multiple-point transmission/reception with the plurality of radio base station apparatuses, the radio base station apparatus designates a plurality of candidate values of predetermined inter-cell channel state information and reports them to the user terminal, and the user terminal measures inter-cell channel state information of each cell, and also selects a specific candidate value that is close to the measurement value of inter-cell channel state information from the plurality of candidate values that have been reported, and feeds back the specific candidate value to the radio base station apparatus.
