USER EQUIPMENT APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR FEEDING BACK CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A UE apparatus and method for feeding back Channel State Information (CSI) in a wireless communication system are disclosed. The UE apparatus includes a processor for determining a Rank Indicator (RI) for a predefined frequency band and selecting an index of a Precoding Matrix Indicator (PMI) corresponding to the determined RI from a codebook set used for a transmission on the predefined frequency band, and a transmission antenna for transmitting the RI and the index of the PMI to a Base Station (BS). The RI and the index of the PMI are jointly encoded prior to the transmission.
