Abstract

Disclosed in the present application is a method by which a terminal reports aperiodic channel status information (CSI) to a base station in a wireless communication system. Particularly, the method comprises the steps of: receiving, from the base station, through downlink control information (DCI), a CSI report triggering message including information on at least one CSI process among a plurality of CSI processes and on one aperiodic reference signal among a plurality of aperiodic reference signal resources included in the at least one CSI process; and updating the aperiodic CSI relating to the at least one CSI process and reporting the same to the base station, on the basis of the one aperiodic reference signal.

Claims (20)

1. A method for transmitting, by a user equipment (UE), aperiodic channel status information (CSI) to a base station in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

transmitting, to the base station, UE capability information including a threshold value of CSI computing capability of the UE;

receiving, from the base station, an aperiodic CSI report-triggering message via downlink control information (DCI),

wherein the aperiodic CSI report-triggering message include information about at least one CSI process among a plurality of CSI processes, and about an aperiodic reference signal resource among a plurality of aperiodic reference signal resources included in the at least one CSI process; and

transmitting the aperiodic CSI report to the base station by updating the aperiodic CSI report for the at least one CSI process based on the aperiodic reference signal resource,

wherein, when a number of aperiodic CSI reports to be transmitted in a predetermined time unit is greater than the threshold value, a number of aperiodic CSI reports to be updated is equal to or less than the threshold value.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the aperiodic CSI reports to be updated are selected in accordance from an aperiodic CSI report corresponding to a lowest CSI process index.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises receiving information about the plurality of CSI processes including the plurality of aperiodic reference signal resources via an upper layer from the base station.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the DCI includes an uplink grant.

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

a wireless communication module; and

a processor coupled to the module, wherein the processor is configured to:

transmit, to a base station, UE capability information including a threshold value of CSI computing capability of the UE,

receive, from the base station, an aperiodic CSI report-triggering message via downlink control information (DCI),

wherein the aperiodic CSI report-triggering message include information about at least one CSI process among a plurality of CSI processes, and about an aperiodic reference signal resource among a plurality of aperiodic reference signal resources included in the at least one CSI process; and

transmit an aperiodic CSI report to the base station by updating the aperiodic CSI for the at least one CSI process based on the aperiodic reference signal resource,

wherein, when a number of aperiodic CSI reports to be transmitted in a predetermined time unit is greater than the threshold value, a number of aperiodic CSI reports to be updated is equal to or less than the threshold value.

6. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the aperiodic CSI reports to be updated are selected in accordance from an aperiodic CSI report corresponding to a lowest CSI process index.

7. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the processor is configured for receiving information about the plurality of CSI processes including the plurality of aperiodic reference signal resources via an upper layer from the base station.

8. The UE of claim 5 , wherein the DCI includes an uplink grant.
