Abstract

Disclosed is a method by which a terminal reports channel status information (CSI) to a base station in a wireless communication system, so as to perform a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS)-based downlink transmission through a multi-layer. Particularly, the method comprises the steps of: receiving a channel status information-reference signal (CSI-RS) from the base station; calculating the CSI on the basis of the CSI-RS, on the assumption that a dual pre-coder composed of a first pre-coder and a second pre-coder is applied; and reporting the calculated CSI to the base station, wherein column vectors of the second pre-coder are composed of a single discrete Fourier transform (DFT) vector.

Claims (18)

1. A method of reporting Channel Status Information (C SI) for a Demodulation-Reference Signal (DM-RS) based downlink transmission through dual layers to a base station by a user equipment in a wireless access system, the method comprising:

receiving a Channel Status Information-Reference Signal (CSI-RS) from the base station;

calculating the CSI based on the CSI-RS on an assumption that a dual precoder including a first precoder and a second precoder is applied; and

reporting the CSI to the base station, the CSI including at least one of a rank indicator, channel quality information or information on the first precoder,

wherein the second precoder is configured from one of precoders defined by two column vectors, and

wherein the two column vectors are identical.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the dual layers correspond to different antenna ports of the DM-RS.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second precoder applies a same beam to each of the dual layers.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the received CSI-RS is defined as 4 or 8 antenna ports.

5. A method of receiving Channel Status Information (CSI) for a Demodulation-Reference Signal (DM-RS) based downlink transmission through dual layers by a base station from a user equipment in a wireless access system, the method comprising:

transmitting a Channel Status Information-Reference Signal (CSI-RS) to the user equipment; and

receiving the CSI including at least one of a rank indicator, channel quality information or information on a first precoder of a dual precoder,

wherein the CSI is calculated by the user equipment based on the CSI-RS on an assumption that the dual precoder including the first precoder and a second precoder is applied,

wherein the second precoder is configured from one of precoders defined by two column vectors, and

wherein the two column vectors are identical.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the dual layers correspond to different antenna ports of the DM-RS.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the second precoder applies a same beam to each of the dual layers.

8. The method of claim 5 , wherein the received CSI-RS is defined as 4 or 8 antenna ports.
