Abstract

A base station including: a controller configured to configure a plurality of configuration information, each of the plurality of configuration information includes resource configuration information, a number of antenna ports, and power control information; and a transmitter configured to transmit to terminal a control signal including the plurality of configuration information, wherein, the transmitter transmits to terminal an indication information that indicates configuration information to be used for measurement among the plurality of the configuration information.

Claims (29)

1. A base station comprising:

a controller configured to configure a plurality of configuration information, each of the plurality of configuration information includes resource configuration information and an index of antenna arrangement mode which defines at least a number of antenna ports in a first dimension and a number of antenna ports in a second dimension in an antenna array, the index being used for determination of a size of a codebook; and

a transmitter configured to transmit to a terminal a control signal including the plurality of configuration information via Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling, wherein,

the transmitter transmits to the terminal a Downlink Control information (DCI) including an indication information that indicates configuration information to be used for measurement among the plurality of the configuration information, the indication information is n bit, n is a positive integer.

2. The base station according to claim 1 , wherein, each of the plurality of configuration information includes information of whether a reference signal is weighted or not.

3. The base station according to claim 1 , wherein, each of the plurality of configuration information includes information of the number of sets of configured reference signals.

4. The base station according to claim 1 , wherein, each of the plurality of configuration information includes sub-frame configuration information.

5. The base station according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a receiver configured to receive from the terminal Precoding Matrix Indicator (PMI) according to resulted measurement of channel by the terminal, the channel is determined according to the configuration information that is indicated by the indication information.

6. A terminal comprising:

a receiver configured to receive from a base station a control signal including a plurality of configuration information, each of the plurality of configuration information includes resource configuration information and an index of antenna arrangement mode which defines at least a number of antenna ports in a first dimension and a number of antenna ports in a second dimension in an antenna array, the index being used for determination of a size of a codebook via Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling; and

a controller configured to configure the plurality of configuration information,

wherein,

the receiver receives from the base station a Downlink Control information (DCI) including an indication information that indicates configuration information to be used for measurement among the plurality of the configuration information, the indication information is n bit, n is a positive integer.

7. The terminal according to claim 6 , wherein, each of the plurality of configuration information includes information of whether a reference signal is weighted or not.

8. The terminal according to claim 6 , wherein, each of the plurality of configuration information includes information of the number of sets of configured reference signals.

9. The terminal according to claim 6 , wherein, each of the plurality of configuration information includes sub-frame configuration information.

10. The terminal according to claim 6 , further comprising:

a transmitter configured to transmit to the base station Precoding Matrix Indicator (PMI) according to resulted measurement of channel, wherein,

the controller determines the channel according to the configuration information that is indicated by the indication information.

11. A communication system comprising:

a base station configured to:

configure a plurality of configuration information, each of the plurality of configuration information includes resource configuration information and an index of antenna arrangement mode which defines at least a number of antenna ports in a first dimension and a number of antenna ports in a second dimension in an antenna array, the index being used for determination of a size of a codebook via Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling;

transmit a control signal including the plurality of configuration information; and,

transmit a Downlink Control information (DCI) including an indication information that indicates configuration information to be used for measurement among the plurality of the configuration information, the indication information is n bit, n is a positive integer;

a terminal configured to:

receive from the base station the control signal;

configure the plurality of configuration information; and

receive from the base station the indication information.
