Abstract

The present invention provide a method by which a terminal measures channel state information (CSI), a method by which a terminal transmits CSI, and devices for supporting the methods. A method by which a terminal feeds back CSI in a wireless access system, according to one embodiment of the present invention, can comprise the steps of: receiving an upper layer signal including a channel quality indicator (CQI) index; receiving a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) signal including an aperiodic CSI request field; receiving a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) signal that is repeatedly transmitted as many time as the number indicated by the CQI index; measuring the CSI for a CSI reference resource; and feeding back the measured CSI by using a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) signal.

Claims (38)

1. A method for feeding back Channel State Information (CSI) in a wireless access system, the method performed by a user equipment (UE) and comprising:

receiving same Physical Downlink Control Channels (PDCCHs) repeatedly transmitted in downlink subframes (DL SFs), the same PDCCHs including an aperiodic CSI request field;

measuring CSI according to the aperiodic CSI request field by using CSI reference resources; and

feeding back the measured CSI using a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH),

wherein the CSI reference resources are defined by two or more valid DL SFs and the two or more valid DL SFs are continuously allocated.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the PUSCH is transmitted repeatedly a predetermined number of times.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the CSI reference resources are configured with respect to a last reception time of repeatedly transmitted physical downlink shared channels (PDSCHs).

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the CSI is measured by using Cell specific Reference Signals (CRSs) in the two or more valid DL SFs.

5. A User Equipment (UE) for feeding back Channel State Information (CSI) in a wireless access system, the UE comprising:

a transmitter;

a receiver; and

a processor configured to feed back CSI in conjunction with the transmitter and the receiver,

wherein the processor controls the receiver to receive same Physical Downlink Control Channels (PDCCHs) repeatedly transmitted in downlink subframes (DL SFs), the same PDCCHs including an aperiodic CSI request field,

wherein the processor measures CSI according to the aperiodic CSI request field by using CSI reference resources,

wherein the processor controls the transmitter to feed back the measured CSI using a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH), and

wherein the CSI reference resources are defined by two or more valid DL SFs and the two or more valid DL SFs are continuously allocated.

6. The UE according to claim 5 , wherein the PUSCH is transmitted repeatedly a predetermined number of times.

7. The UE according to claim 5 , wherein the CSI reference resources are configured with respect to a last reception time of repeatedly transmitted physical downlink shared channels (PDSCHs).

8. The UE according to claim 5 , wherein the CSI is measured by using Cell specific Reference Signals (CRSs) in the two or more valid DL SFs.

9. A method for receiving Channel State Information (CSI) in a wireless access system, the method performed by a base station (BS) and comprising:

transmitting same Physical Downlink Control Channels (PDCCHs) repeatedly in downlink subframes (DL SFs), the same PDCCHs including an aperiodic CSI request field; and

receiving the CSI via a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH),

wherein the CSI is measured based on CSI reference resources, and

wherein the CSI reference resources are defined by two or more valid DL SFs, and the two or more valid DL SFs are continuously allocated.

10. The method according to claim 9 , wherein the PUSCH is received repeatedly a predetermined number of times.

11. The method according to claim 9 , wherein the CSI reference resources are configured with respect to a last reception time of repeatedly transmitted physical downlink shared channels (PDSCHs).

12. The method according to claim 9 , wherein the CSI is measured by using Cell specific Reference Signals (CRSs) in the two or more valid DL SFs.

13. A base station (BS) for receiving Channel State Information (CSI) in a wireless access system, the BS comprising:

a transmitter;

a receiver; and

a processor configured to receive the CSI in conjunction with the transmitter and the receiver,

wherein the processor controls the transmitter to transmit same Physical Downlink Control Channels (PDCCHs) repeatedly in downlink subframes (DL SFs), the same PDCCHs including an aperiodic CSI request field,

wherein the processor controls the receiver to receive the CSI via a Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH),

wherein the CSI is measured based on CSI reference resources, and

wherein the CSI reference resources are defined by two or more valid DL SFs, and the two or more valid DL SFs are continuously allocated.

14. The BS according to claim 13 , wherein the PUSCH is received repeatedly a predetermined number of times.

15. The BS according to claim 13 , wherein the CSI reference resources are configured with respect to a last reception time of repeatedly transmitted physical downlink shared channels (PDSCHs).

16. The BS according to claim 13 , wherein the CSI is measured by using Cell specific Reference Signals (CRSs) in the two or more valid DL SFs.
