Abstract

A method for measuring interference by a terminal in a wireless communication system according to one embodiment of the present invention may comprise the steps of: receiving interference measurement configuration information including a semi-persistence channel state information-interference (CSI-IM) configuration; receiving a request which indicates measurement of the semi-persistence CSI-IM configuration; and measuring the semi-persistence CSI-IM configuration in response to the received request, wherein the semi-persistence CSI-IM configuration may indicate CSI-IM which is performed at predetermined periods during a predetermined time interval.

Claims (34)

1. A method for measuring interference in a wireless communication system, performed by a terminal, the method comprising:

receiving first information for configuring one or more resources for a semi-persistent interference measurement;

receiving second information for either enabling or disabling the terminal to perform the semi-persistent interference measurement in the one or more resources; and

performing the semi-persistent interference measurement for the one or more resources configured by the first information, based on the second information,

wherein the first information includes a periodicity of the one or more resources, and

wherein the configuration of the one or more resources is applied after a specific time duration from a timing related to reception of the second information.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second information includes a channel state information (CSI) report request, or the second information is received together with the CSI report request.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein in a case that the semi-persistent interference measurement is to be reported in a subframe #m+k after a predetermined number of (k) subframes from a subframe #m in which the second information is received:

based on the second information being received before a channel state information (CSI) report request is received:

a report of the semi-persistent interference measurement related to the CSI report request received in the subframe #m+k or in a subsequent subframe is omitted.

4. A terminal configured to measure interference in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:

a transmitter and a receiver;

at least one processor; and

at least one computer memory connected to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, based on being executed by the at least one processor, perform operations comprising:

receiving first information for configuring one or more resources for a semi-persistent interference measurement;

receiving second information for either enabling or disabling the terminal to perform the semi-persistent interference measurement in the one or more resources; and performing the semi-persistent interference measurement for the one or more resources configured by the first information, based on the second information,

wherein the first information includes a periodicity of the one or more resources, and

wherein the configuration of the one or more resources is applied after a specific time duration from a timing related to reception of the second information.

5. The terminal according to claim 4 , wherein the second information includes a channel state information (CSI) report request, or the second information is received together with the CSI report request.

6. The terminal according to claim 4 , wherein in a case measurement is to be reported in a subframe #m+k after a predetermined number of (k) subframes from a subframe #m in which the second information is received:

based on the second information being received before a channel state information (CSI) report request is received:

a report of the semi-persistent interference measurement related to the CSI report request received in the subframe #m+k or in a subsequent subframe is omitted.

7. A processing device configured to control a terminal to measure interference in a wireless communication system, the processing device comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one computer memory connected to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, based on being executed by the at least one processor, perform operations comprising:

receiving first information for configuring one or more resources for a semi-persistent interference measurement;

receiving second information for either enabling or disabling the terminal to perform the semi-persistent interference measurement in the one or more resources; and

performing the semi-persistent interference measurement for the one or more resources configured by the first information, based on the second information,

wherein the first information includes a periodicity of the one or more resources, and

wherein the configuration of the one or more resources is applied after a specific time duration from a timing related to reception of the second information.

8. The processing device according to claim 7 , wherein the second information includes a channel state information (CSI) report request, or the second information is received together with the CSI report request.

9. The processing device according to claim 7 , wherein in a case that the semi-persistent interference measurement is to be reported in a subframe #m+k after a predetermined number of (k) subframes from a subframe #m in which the second information is received:

based on the second information being received before a channel state information (CSI report request is received:

a report of the semi-persistent interference measurement related to the CSI report request received in the subframe #m+k or in a subsequent subframe is omitted.
