Method for feeding back channel status information in wireless communication system supporting multiple antennas, and apparatus therefor
The present invention relates to a method for feeding back, by a terminal, channel status information (CSI) in a wireless communication system. In detail, the method includes the steps of feeding back a subband channel quality indication (CQI) and a subband precoding matrix index (PMI), wherein a first subband size for the subband CQI and a second subband size for the subband PMI are set differently.
1. A method of performing feedback, by a user equipment, on channel status information (CSI) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
receiving, from a base station, a parameter for configuring a first subband size for measuring a subband channel quality indication (CQI) and for configuring a second subband size for measuring a subband precoding matrix index (PMI); and
performing feedback on the subband CQI and the subband PMI measured based on the first subband size and the second subband size, respectively,
wherein the first subband size is determined based on a system bandwidth, and
wherein the second subband size is determined based on feedback bits determined by the system bandwidth and a value of a rank indicator (RI).
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the feedback corresponds to an aperiodic feedback performed on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH).
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first subband size and the second subband size is configured to correspond to a prescribed multiple of a predetermined subband size.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the prescribed multiple is determined according to the system bandwidth.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second subband size is configured by a prescribed multiple of the first subband size.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first subband size is determined according to the number of subbands permitted for the subband CQI and wherein the second subband size is determined according to the number of subbands permitted for the subband PMI.
7. A user equipment performing feedback on channel status information (CSI) in a wireless communication system, comprising:
an RF (radio frequency) unit; and
a processor connected with the RF unit, the processor configured to:
receive, from a base station, a parameter for configuring a first subband size for measuring a subband channel quality indication (CQI) and for configuring a second subband size for measuring a subband precoding matrix index (PMI); and
perform feedback on the subband CQI and the subband PMI measured based on the first subband size and the second subband size, respectively,
wherein the first subband size is determined based on a system bandwidth, and
wherein the second subband size is determined based on feedback bits determined by the system bandwidth and a value of a rank indicator (RI).
