Abstract

A method for receiving a downlink signal from a base station (BS) by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method includes receiving power multiplexing information from the BS, receiving a reference signal and the downlink signal from the BS, calculating reception power of an interference signal from reception power of the downlink signal, using the reference signal and the power multiplexing information, and acquiring a data signal of the UE by eliminating the reception power of the interference signal from the reception power of the downlink signal.

Claims (19)

1. A method for receiving a downlink signal from a base station (BS) by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:

receiving, via a higher layer, a first UE specific parameter P A or a first cell specific parameter P B , and a second UE specific parameter P A or a second cell specific parameter P B about a first power ratio between the downlink signal and a cell specific reference signal (CRS);

receiving downlink control information (DCI) including third information about a second power ratio between a downlink data for the UE and a Multi-user Superposition Transmission (MUST) interference signal; and

receiving the downlink signal based on a transmission power, wherein the transmission power is determined based on (i) a number of antenna ports for transmit diversity used for the downlink signal and (ii) one of the first P A or P B and the second P A or P B ,

wherein, based on the third information including a first value, the downlink signal includes the downlink data and does not include the MUST interference signal, and the first PA or PB is used for determining the transmission power of the UE not configured for MUST, and

wherein, based on the third information including a value except the first value, the downlink signal includes the downlink data and the MUST interference signal and the second PA or PB is used for determining the transmission power of the UE configured for the MUST.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the downlink data and the MUST interference signal are transmitted in a same time resource and a frequency resource based on a same precoding.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the transmission power is obtained based on scaling a transmission power of the CRS based on the first PA or PB, and wherein the transmission power of the CRS is obtained via the higher layer.

4. A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the UE comprising:

a radio frequency (RF) unit; and

at least one processor connected with the RF unit and configured to:

control the RF unit to receive, via a higher layer, a first UE specific parameter P A or a first cell specific parameter P B , and a second UE specific parameter P A or a second cell specific Dara meter P B about a first power ratio between a downlink signal and a cell specific reference signal (CRS),

control the RF unit to receive downlink control information (DCI) including third information about a second power ratio between a downlink data for the UE and a Multi-user Superposition Transmission (MUST) interference signal, and

control the RF unit to receive the downlink signal based on a transmission power,

wherein the transmission power is determined based on (i) a number of antenna ports for transmit diversity used for the downlink signal and (ii) one of the first P A or P B and the second P A or P B ,

wherein, based on the third information including a first value, the downlink signal includes the downlink data and does not include the MUST interference signal, and the first P A or P B is used for determining the transmission power of the UE not configured for MUST, and

wherein, based on the third information including a value except the first value, the downlink signal includes the downlink data and the MUST interference signal and the second P A or P B is used for determining the transmission power of the UE configured for the MUST.

5. The UE according to claim 4 , wherein the downlink data and the MUST interference signal are transmitted in a same time resource and a frequency resource based on a same precoding.

6. The UE according to claim 4 , wherein the transmission power is obtained based on scaling a transmission power of the CRS based on the first P A or P B , and wherein the transmission power of the CRS is obtained via the higher layer.
