Abstract

Provided are a method and an apparatus for reporting channel state information (CSI) by a user equipment in a wireless communication system. According to the present invention, the user equipment may receive configuration information related with the CSI from a base station and measure the CSI based on the configuration information. Thereafter, the user equipment includes reporting the CSI to the base station and the CSI includes a rank indicator (RI), a channel quality indicator (CQI), and an indicator indicating the number of amplitude coefficients other than 0 and the second part includes a precoding matrix indicator (PMI).

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the first part and the second part are sequentially mapped in a direction in which an index of the symbol to which the DMRS is mapped increases.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the number of symbols to which the first part is mapped is determined based on the number of bits of the first part and the number of bits of the second part.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first part and the second part are each separately encoded.
