Abstract

The present invention is designed so that interference measurements are configured flexibly even when transmission is made in multiple layers. A user terminal has a receiving section that receives a DL signal, and a control section that controls the measurement of the DL signal, the receiving section receives information related to an interference measurement resource including a combination of a plurality of ports and/or channels, and the control section controls the measurement of the DL signal based on the information related to the interference measurement resource.

Claims (18)

1 . A user terminal comprising:

a receiving section that receives a DL signal; and

a control section that controls measurement of the DL signal, wherein:

the receiving section receives information related to an interference measurement resource including a combination of a plurality of ports and/or channels; and

the control section controls the measurement of the DL signal based on the information related to the interference measurement resource.

2 . The user terminal according to claim 1 , wherein:

the receiving section receives information related to a signal measurement resource, including at least one port and/or channel in the interference measurement resource; and

the control section controls measurement of signal power based on a DL signal in the signal measurement resource.

3 . The user terminal according to claim 2 , wherein, when the receiving section receives the interference measurement resource for a specific period and the signal measurement resource for a specific period, the control section controls measurement of interference power based on a DL signal of a resource other than the signal measurement resource in the interference measurement resource.

4 . The user terminal according to claim 3 , wherein the receiving section receives DL control information, which includes the information related to the interference measurement resource for the specific period and the information related to the signal measurement resource for the specific period.

5 . The user terminal according to claim 2 , wherein:

the signal measurement resource is a port and/or a channel that is assigned to a DL signal addressed to the user terminal; and

resources other than the signal measurement resource in the interference measurement resource include a port and/or a channel that is assigned to a DL signal addressed to another user terminal.

6 . A radio communication method for a user terminal, comprising the steps of:

receiving a DL signal; and

controlling measurement of the DL signal, wherein:

the user terminal receives information related to an interference measurement resource including a combination of a plurality of ports and/or channels; and

the user terminal controls measurement of the DL signal based on the information related to the interference measurement resource.
