Abstract

A method of receiving a signal at a user equipment (UE) from at least two cells in wireless communication system is disclosed. Receiving module may receive data and at least one reference signal from a CoMP (Coordinated Multi-Point) set including at least two cells. Decoding module may decode the received data and the received at least one reference signal. In this case, a power level of the data is same as a power level of the at least one reference signal, or a power ratio between the data and the at least one reference signal is a scaled value. Also, the power level of the data and the at least one reference signal are same for each of the at least two cells. A power ratio between the data and the at least one reference signal is a same scaled value for each of the at least two cells.

Claims (16)

1. A method for receiving a signal at a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving CoMP (Coordinated Multi-Point) set information that indicates a CoMP set which includes at least two cells, wherein the at least two cells included in the CoMP set have a same power setting configuration;

receiving data and at least one reference signal from the at least two cells included in the CoMP set, wherein the data received from each of the at least two cells is the same; and

decoding the received data and the received at least one reference signal,

wherein power levels of the data and the at least one reference signal are the same for each of the at least two values, or a power ratio between the data and the at least one reference signal is a scaled value for each of the at least two cells.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the steps of receiving data and at least one reference signal and decoding the received data employs a joint processing (JP) scheme.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the data and the at least one reference signal are received via a CoMP resource region used for CoMP (Coordinated Multi-Point) transmission and reception.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the CoMP resource region and a non-CoMP resource region have a same power setting.

5. A user equipment (UE) for receiving a signal in wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a receiving module for receiving CoMP (Coordinated Multi-Point) set information that indicates a CoMP set which includes at least two cells and for receiving data and at least one reference signal from the at least two cells included in the CoMP set; and a decoding module for decoding the received data and the received at least one reference signal,

wherein the at least two cells included in the CoMP set have a same power setting configuration,

wherein the data received from each of the at least two cells is the same, and

wherein power levels of the data and the at least one reference signal are the same for each of the at least two values, or a power ratio between the data and the at least one reference signal is a scaled value for each of the at least two cells.

6. The UE of claim 5 , wherein at least one of the steps of receiving data and at least one reference signal and decoding the received data employs a joint processing (JP) scheme.

7. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the data and the at least one reference signal are received via a CoMP resource region used for CoMP (Coordinated Multi-Point) transmission and reception.

8. The UE of claim 7 , wherein the CoMP resource region and a non-CoMP resource region have a same power setting.
