Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for transmitting channel information, by a User Equipment (UE). Information for at least one first type Channel Status Information Reference Signal (CSI-RS) and information for at least one second type CSI-RS from an eNB, are identified. First channel information is generated based on a first set of a first type CSI-RS and a second type CSI-RS. Second channel information is generated based on a second set of a first type CSI-RS and a second type CSI-RS. The first channel information is reported by Physical Uplink Control CHannel (PUCCH)-based periodic channel information feedback. The second channel information is reported by the PUCCH-based periodic channel information feedback.
Abstract:
In legacy systems such as 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) releases 8 to 10, the control channel is transmitted using the first few Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols in a subframe. The limited control channel capacity will impact the system performance in future releases as more and more User Equipments (UEs) will be scheduled in a subframe with technologies such as MulitUser-Multiple Input Multiple Output (MU-MIMO) and Coordinated Multipoint (CoMP) transmission being enhanced or introduced. A new Enhanced Control CHannel (E-CCH) is necessary to be designed, which will use the resource in the Physical Downlink Shared CHannel (PDSCH) in the legacy systems. The E-CCH will support UE-specific DeModulation Reference Signal (DMRS) based transmission and receiving. However, the configuration of DMRS for E-CCH is necessary to be known to UE in prior. This invention discloses multiple methods in which DMRS is configured for E-CCHs and respective eNB and UE behaviors.

The CSI transmission method of a terminal for receiving Joint Transmission (JT) from a first Transmission Point (TP) and a second TP includes receiving a first CSI Reference Signal (CSI-RS) corresponding to the first TP, receiving a second CSI-RS corresponding to the second TP, generating an aggregated CSI corresponding to the first and second CSI-RSs, and transmitting the aggregated CSI, wherein generating an aggregated CSI comprising creating the aggregated CSI with a transmission timing of the aggregated CSI. The CSI transmission/reception method and apparatus is capable of transmission CSI efficiently in the CoMP system.
