Abstract

The present invention provides a channel state information feedback method and device. The method includes: selecting, by a communication node, N information groups from configured M information groups; where N and M are positive integers, and N is less than or equal to M; processing, by the communication node, the selected N information groups in a preset manner to obtain index information of the N information groups and parameter information of the preset manner, wherein the index information comprises group indices of the N information groups or index of information in the N information groups; and feeding back, by the communication node, the index information and the parameter information.
