Transmission method and apparatus for carrier aggregation and uplink MIMO

摘要

A transmission method for carrier aggregation, more particularly, for uplink MIMO and carrier aggregation, in a method for transmitting an uplink signal by the carrier aggregation in a terminal having at least four antennas, includes receiving a grant signal for transmission of the uplink signal, the grant signal including information related to use of a primary cell and a secondary cell, determining one antenna or at least two antennas to use the primary cell, determining one antenna or at least two antennas to use the secondary cell, and transmitting a first uplink signal to the primary cell and a second uplink signal to the secondary cell using the respective determined antennas.

1. A transmission method for uplink Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) and Carrier Aggregation (CA), in a method for transmitting an uplink signal by CA in a terminal having at least four antennas, the method comprising:
receiving a grant signal for transmission of an uplink signal, the grant signal including information related to uplink antenna configuration for a primary cell and a secondary cell; determining one antenna or at least two antennas to use for the primary cell and the secondary cell using the uplink antenna configuration; and transmitting a first uplink signal on the primary cell and a second uplink signal on the secondary cell using the determined respective antennas, wherein the antennas for the primary cell do not overlap the antennas for the secondary cell, wherein when at least two antennas are used for the primary cell, the at least two antennas for the primary cell are not adjacent to each other, and wherein when at least two antennas are used for the secondary cell, the at least two antennas for the secondary cell are not adjacent to each other.
