Abstract

An aperiodic channel state reporting method in a wireless communication system, according to an embodiment of the present invention, is performed by means of a terminal. And the method comprises the steps of: receiving an aperiodic channel state information (CSI) report request from a base station; and calculating aperiodic CSI with respect to objects for CSI measurement indicated by means of the aperiodic CSI report request and then transmitting same to the base station, wherein, if valid measurement resources do not exist during a particular time interval with respect to the particular objects for CSI measurement indicated by means of the aperiodic CSI report request, the aperiodic CSI with respect to the objects for CSI measurement can be set as a particular indication value and be transmitted.

Claims (24)

1. A method for reporting an aperiodic channel state by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, from a base station, an aperiodic channel state information (CSI) report request indicating at least one CSI measurement target;

transmitting, to the base station, an aperiodic CSI corresponding to the at least one CSI measurement target and

transmitting, to the base station, information on whether to update CSI report of the at least one CSI measurement target,

wherein the at least one CSI measurement target comprises a cell or a CSI process for an unlicensed band, and

wherein the aperiodic CSI is set to a specific indication value, if there is no valid measurement resource for the at least one CSI measurement target during a specific time period.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the specific indication value is one of channel quality indicator (CQI) indexes expressed as predetermined bits.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the specific indication value is an index in addition to CQI indexes expressed as predetermined bits.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the information on whether to update CSI report is transmitted when the aperiodic CSI report request triggers CSI reports exceeding CSI computation capabilities of the terminal or when CSI processes, exceeding the CSI computation capabilities of the terminal, should be updated.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the aperiodic CSI report request indicates one of a plurality of CSI measurement target sets, configured to have respective reporting modes different from each other.

6. A terminal configured to report an aperiodic channel state in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:

a transmitter;

a receiver; and

a processor, operatively coupled to the transmitter and the receiver,

wherein the processor is configured to:

control the receiver to receive, from a base station (BS), an aperiodic channel state information (CSI) report request indicating at least one CSI measurement target,

control the transmitter to transmit, to the BS, an aperiodic CSI corresponding to the at least one CSI measurement target, and

control the transmitter to transmit, to the BS, information on whether to update CSI report of the at least one CSI measurement target,

wherein the at least one CSI measurement target comprises a cell or a CSI process for an unlicensed band, and

wherein the aperiodic CSI is set to a specific indication value, if there is no valid measurement resource for the at least one CSI measurement target during a specific time period.

7. The terminal according to claim 6 , wherein the specific indication value is one of channel quality indicator (CQI) indexes expressed as predetermined bits.

8. The terminal according to claim 6 , wherein the specific indication value is an index in addition to CQI indexes expressed as predetermined bits.

9. The terminal according to claim 6 , wherein the information on whether to update CSI report is transmitted when the aperiodic CSI report request triggers CSI reports exceeding CSI computation capabilities of the terminal or when CSI processes, exceeding the CSI computation capabilities of the terminal, should be updated.

10. The terminal according to claim 6 , wherein the aperiodic CSI report request indicates one of a plurality of CSI measurement target sets, configured to have respective reporting modes different from each other.
