Abstract

Method and device for feeding back channel state information (CSI) and method and device for determining CSI are provided. The method for feeding back CSI includes feeding back CSI according to a determined structure of the CSI, where the structure of the CSI includes M CSI subsets; an m-th CSI subset among the M CSI subsets includes km channel information components. The M CSI subsets include N CSI subsets, and an n-th CSI subset among the N CSI subsets includes Ln channel information components which are determined by transforming a group of base vectors.
