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) reports to a base station in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

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

receiving, from the base station, messages for triggering the aperiodic CSI reports in a time unit;

transmitting the aperiodic CSI reports to the base station by updating the aperiodic CSI reports,

wherein, based on a number of aperiodic CSI reports to be triggered in the time unit being 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 messages for triggering the aperiodic CSI report are received via downlink control information (DCI).

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein, based on the number of aperiodic CSI reports to be triggered in the time unit being greater than the threshold value, one or more aperiodic CSI reports among the aperiodic CSI reports to be triggered in the time unit are transmitted without updating.

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

at least one transceiver;

at least one processor; and

at least one computer memory operably connectable to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:

transmitting, to a base station, information related to a threshold value of channel status information (CSI) computing capability;

receiving, from the base station, messages for triggering an aperiodic CSI report in a time unit;

transmitting the aperiodic CSI report to the base station by updating the aperiodic CSI reports,

wherein, based on a number of aperiodic CSI reports to be triggered in the time unit being 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 messages for triggering the aperiodic CSI report are received via downlink control information (DCI).

8. The UE of claim 5 , wherein, based on the number of aperiodic CSI reports to be triggered in the time unit being greater than the threshold value, one or more aperiodic CSI reports among the aperiodic CSI reports to be triggered are transmitted without updating.
