Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining a precoding matrix and a wireless communication system. In data retransmission, when the retransmission rank is less than an initial transmission rank, the transmitting end selects a matrix having a maximum similarity with an initial transmission precoding matrix in spatial direction according to the retransmission rank. In multiple data retransmissions, precoding matrixes for the retransmissions are different from each other and may have a minimum similarity in the spatial direction, but have a maximum similarity with the initial transmission precoding matrix in the spatial direction. Or, the similarity between each retransmission precoding matrix and the initial transmission precoding matrix in the spatial direction progressively decreases.
