Mobile communication system, user terminal, and processor
A mobile communication system performs multi-antenna transmission by applying a precoder matrix for determining transmission directionality. The mobile communication system comprises a user terminal that starts feedback of predetermined precoder matrix information to a node in response to an instruction from the node controlling communication. The predetermined precoder matrix information is used to decide the precoder matrix that is applied to transmission to another user terminal different from the user terminal. The user terminal comprises: a control unit that switches whether to stop the feedback after starting the feedback in response to the instruction.
1. A user terminal comprising:
a controller configured to start feedback of predetermined precoder matrix information to a base station that manages a cell connecting with the user terminal, in response to an instruction from the base station, wherein
the predetermined precoder matrix information is used to decide a precoder matrix that is applied to a transmission to another user terminal in a neighboring base station adjacent to the base station, and
the controller further configured to, after the feedback is started in response to the instruction, stop the feedback in response to determining that only a radio signal corresponding to one transmission antenna is received from the neighboring base station.
2. A user terminal comprising:
a controller configured to start feedback of predetermined precoder matrix information to a base station that manages a cell connecting with the user terminal, in response to an instruction from the base station, wherein
the predetermined precoder matrix information is used to decide a precoder matrix that is applied to a transmission to another user terminal in a neighboring base station adjacent to the base station, and
the controller further configured to, after the feedback is started in response to the instruction, stop the feedback in response to determining that a time division duplex scheme is applied to the neighboring base station.
3. A user terminal comprising:
a controller configured to start feedback of predetermined precoder matrix information to a base station that manages a cell connecting with the user terminal, in response to an instruction from the base station, wherein
the predetermined precoder matrix information is used to decide a precoder matrix that is applied to a transmission to another user terminal in a neighboring base station adjacent to the base station,
the predetermined precoder matrix information is received in the base station to be transferred from the base station to the neighboring base station via an inter-base station interface, and
the controller further configured to, after the feedback is started in response to the instruction, stop the feedback in response to determining that the neighboring base station does not support the inter-base station interface.
4. A user terminal comprising:
a controller configured to start feedback of predetermined precoder matrix information to a base station that manages a cell connecting with the user terminal, in response to an instruction from the base station, wherein
the predetermined precoder matrix information is used to decide a precoder matrix that is applied to a transmission to another user terminal, and
the controller further configured to, after the feedback is started in response to the instruction, stop the feedback in response to determining that a neighboring base station adjacent to the base station does not support coordinated transmission for performing multi-antenna transmission in downlink in coordination with the base station.
5. A user terminal comprising:
a controller configured to start feedback of predetermined precoder matrix information to a base station that manages a cell connecting with the user terminal, in response to an instruction from the base station, wherein
the predetermined precoder matrix information is used to decide a precoder matrix that is applied to a transmission to another user terminal in a neighboring base station adjacent to the base station,
the controller further configured to, after the feedback is started in response to the instruction, feed back an invalid transmission antenna number that is recognized from a radio signal received from the neighboring base station, and
the controller configured to perform an operation for selecting the predetermined precoder matrix information to be fed back from candidates of the predetermined precoder matrix information by employing only a valid transmission antenna number as a target.
