Method of transmitting control information in wireless communication system
A method of transmitting control information in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes configuring downlink control information including a plurality of information fields according to a format of scheduling for transmission of a single codeword in a spatial multiplexing mode, wherein the plurality of information fields include a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) confirmation filed for indicating whether precoding is performed on downlink data by using a PMI reported by a user equipment and a transmitted precoding matrix indicator (TPMI) information field for indicating a codebook index, and at least one of the PMI confirmation field and the TPMI information field indicates an offset value of power for the downlink data transmission or interference information for the downlink data transmission, and transmitting the downlink control information.
1. A method of receiving control information in a wireless communication system, the method performed by a user equipment (UE) and comprising:
receiving a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH); and
obtaining a downlink control information (DCI) format from the PDCCH, the DCI format comprising a plurality of information fields,
wherein the DCI format is used for scheduling a single codeword in a multi user multiple input multiple output (MU-MIMO) scheme,
wherein the plurality of information fields comprise a transmitted precoding matrix indicator (TPMI) information field indicating a codebook index, a downlink power offset for downlink data transmission, and a virtual resource block (VRB) assignment flag field identifying whether a resource block is assigned in a consecutive manner or a distributed manner,
wherein the downlink power offset is a single information bit that is set to a first offset value indicating ‘0 (dB)’ or a second offset value indicating ‘−10 log 10 2 (dB)’, and
wherein the downlink power offset replaces a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) confirmation field indicating whether precoding is performed on downlink data by using a PMI reported by the UE.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the TPMI information field further indicates a codebook of a subset consisting of a part of a codebook used in the downlink data transmission.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the TPMI information field is immediately followed by the downlink power offset.
4. A user equipment (UE) for receiving control information in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:
a radio frequency unit configured to receive a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH); and
a processor configured to obtain a downlink control information (DCI) format from the PDCCH, the DCI format comprising a plurality of information fields,
wherein the DCI format is used for scheduling a single codeword in a multi user multiple input multiple output (MU-MIMO) scheme,
wherein the plurality of information fields comprise a transmitted precoding matrix indicator (TPMI) information field indicating a codebook index, a downlink power offset for downlink data transmission, and a virtual resource block (VRB) assignment flag field identifying whether a resource block is assigned in a consecutive manner or a distributed manner,
wherein the downlink power offset is a single information bit that is set to a first offset value indicating ‘0 (dB)’ or a second offset value indicating ‘−10 log 10 2 (dB)’, and
wherein the downlink power offset replaces a precoding matrix indicator (PMI) confirmation field indicating whether precoding is performed on downlink data by using a PMI reported by the UE.
5. The user equipment of claim 4 , wherein the TPMI information field further indicates a codebook of a subset consisting of a part of a codebook used in the downlink data transmission.
6. The user equipment of claim 4 , wherein the TPMI information field is immediately followed by the downlink power offset.
