METHOD FOR REPORTING CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION FOR PARTIAL ANTENNA ARRAY BASED BEAMFORMING IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A method for receiving a signal from a base station by a user equipment, using beamforming based on a massive antenna array of the base station in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The method includes configuring an effective antenna array in the massive antenna array, receiving a pilot signal corresponding to the effective antenna array from the base station, reporting channel state information for beamforming to the base station, using the pilot signal, and receiving a user equipment-specifically beamformed signal through the effective antenna array from the base station, wherein the effective antenna array is defined as one or more horizontal antenna ports and one or more vertical antenna ports.
