Abstract

A method of transmitting data in a wireless communication system comprises receiving feedback data on an uplink data channel, the feedback data comprising a precoding matrix indicator (PMI), wherein the value of the PMI corresponds to an index in a codebook, transmitting a precoding scheme for downlink data on a downlink control channel, wherein the precoding scheme is determined as one of at least two of a transmit diversity irrespective of the received PMI, an acknowledgement indicating precoding according to the received PMI and a new PMI indicating that it is used in precoding downlink data to be transmitted, and transmitting the downlink data on a downlink data channel after applying precoding according to the determined precoding scheme.

Claims (16)

1. A transmitter for transmitting data in a wireless communication system, the transmitter comprising a processor configured for:

receiving feedback data on an uplink data channel, the feedback data comprising a first precoding matrix indicator (PMI), wherein a value of the first PMI corresponds to an index in a codebook;

transmitting a precoding scheme for downlink data on a downlink control channel, wherein the precoding scheme is determined as either a transmit diversity irrespective of the first PMI, an acknowledgement indicating precoding according to the first PMI or a second PMI indicating that the PMI is used in precoding downlink data for transmission; and

transmitting the downlink data on a downlink data channel by applying precoding according to the determined precoding scheme.

2. The transmitter of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured for determining the precoding scheme as the transmit diversity when error in the feedback data is detected by using cyclic redundancy check (CRC) attached to the feedback data.

3. The transmitter of claim 1 , wherein the first PMI is the latest received PMI through the uplink data channel.

4. The transmitter of claim 1 , wherein the transmit diversity includes a space frequency block code (SFBC) and a cyclic delay diversity (CDD).

5. The transmitter of claim 1 , wherein the feedback data comprise a plurality of PMIs, each of the plurality of PMIs being selected from the codebook for each sub band.

6. The transmitter of claim 1 , wherein the feedback data comprise a frequency flat PMI on a plurality of sub bands and a frequency selective PMI on selected sub bands of the plurality of sub bands.

7. A receiver for processing data in a wireless communication system, the receiver comprising a processor configured for:

configuring feedback data comprising a first precoding matrix indicator (PMI), wherein a value of the first PMI corresponds to an index in a codebook;

transmitting the feedback data on an uplink data channel to a transmitter;

receiving a precoding scheme for downlink data on a downlink control channel from the transmitter, wherein the precoding scheme is determined by the transmitter as a transmit diversity irrespective of the transmitted PMI, an acknowledgement indicating precoding according to the first PMI or a second PMI indicating that the PMI is used to precode the downlink data; and

decoding the downlink data on a downlink data channel by using the precoding scheme.

8. The receiver of claim 7 , wherein the feedback data comprise a plurality of PMIs on a plurality of sub bands and one wholeband channel quality indicator (CQI) on the plurality of sub bands.

9. The receiver of claim 7 , wherein the first PMI is the latest reported PMI through the uplink data channel.
