Abstract

The present invention relates to a wireless communication system. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a method for a device receiving a signal by using NAICS (Network-Assisted Interference Cancellation and Suppression) in a wireless communication system that supports carrier aggregation comprises the steps of: transmitting, in carrier aggregation, device capability information comprising band combination information which indicates band combination supported by the device; and receiving a signal on the basis of the device capability information, wherein the band combination information can include a maximum bandwidth supporting the NAICS for the band combination.

Claims (21)

1. A method for receiving a signal using NAICS (Network-Assisted Interference Cancellation and Suppression) by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system supporting a carrier aggregation, the method comprising;

transmitting UE capability information including band combination information, the band combination information indicating a band combination supported by the UE on the carrier aggregation; and

receiving the signal using the NAICS based on the UE capability information,

wherein the band combination information includes a maximum bandwidth supporting the NAICS for the band combination.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the band combination information includes a maximum number of component carriers (CCs) supporting NAICS in the band combination.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the band combination information includes indication information indicating whether NAICS is supported for the band combination corresponding to the band combination information.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the indication information is configured in a bitmap, and each bit of the bitmap corresponds to a combination of a maximum number of CCs and a maximum bandwidth value.

5. The method according to claim 3 , wherein if the indication information is included in the band combination information, the indication information indicates support of NAICS for the band combination corresponding to the band combination information.

6. The method according to claim 3 , wherein if the indication information is included in the band combination information, the number of common reference signal (CRS) ports in an interference cell is determined to be 2.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the maximum bandwidth is indicated as the number of physical resource blocks (PRBs).

8. A user equipment (UE) for receiving a signal using NAICS (Network-Assisted Interference Cancellation and Suppression) in a wireless communication system supporting carrier aggregation, the UE comprising;

a radio frequency (RF) unit; and

a processor,

wherein the processor transmits UE capability information including band combination information, the band combination information indicating a band combination supported by the UE on the carrier aggregation, and receives the signal using the NAICS based on the UE capability information, and

wherein the band combination information includes a maximum bandwidth supporting the NAICS for the band combination.

9. The UE according to claim 8 , wherein the band combination information includes a maximum number of component carriers (CCs) supporting NAICS in the band combination.

10. The UE according to claim 9 , wherein the band combination information includes indication information indicating whether NAICS is supported for the band combination corresponding to the band combination information.

11. The UE according to claim 10 , wherein the indication information is configured in a bitmap, and each bit of the bitmap corresponds to a combination of a maximum number of CCs and a maximum bandwidth value.

12. The UE according to claim 10 , wherein if the indication information is included in the band combination information, the indication information indicates support of NAICS for the band combination corresponding to the band combination information.

13. The UE according to claim 10 , wherein if the indication information is included in the band combination information, the number of common reference signal (CRS) ports in an interference cell is determined to be 2.

14. The UE according to claim 8 , wherein the maximum bandwidth is indicated as the number of physical resource blocks (PRBs).
