Abstract

Provided are a wireless communication apparatus and a wireless communication method capable of reducing distortion of a CSI-RS and interference with other CSI-RSs. The wireless communication apparatus according to the invention includes: a CSI-RS generation section that generates CSI-RSs, an arrangement section that arranges the CSI-RSs in a single or a plurality of consecutive OFDM symbols located between a plurality of OFDM symbols, in which a signal other than the CSI-RS is arranged, and adjacent to the plurality of OFDM symbols in which the signal other than the CSI-RS is arranged; and a transmission section that transmits a signal other than the CSI-RS arranged by the arrangement section and a transmission signal including the CSI-RS.

Claims (5)

1. A wireless communication apparatus comprising:

a reception section that receives a signal including a CSI-RS and CSI-RS arrangement information indicating that the CSI-RS is arranged in a single OFDM symbol or a plurality of consecutive OFDM symbols continuous to an OFDM symbol in which a signal other than the CSI-RS is arranged;

a demultiplexing section that demultiplexes the CSI-RS from the signal based on the CSI-RS arrangement information received by the reception section; and

a space information generation section that generates a space estimation information of a line between the own wireless communication apparatus and another communication apparatus communicating with the own wireless communication apparatus from the CSI-RS.
