  • Patent number: 8908548
    Abstract: Feedback methods and apparatuses are provided for efficiently feeding back downlink Channel State Information (CSI) using limited information in a DAS-based wireless communication system. A method includes determining, by a receiver, a candidate Antenna Port (AP) set from among a plurality of APs; selecting an active AP set from the candidate AP set; and transmitting the candidate AP set, the active AP set, and the downlink CSI of active APs included in the active AP set.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8724607
    Abstract: A transmission method and apparatus utilizing Multiple-Input and Multiple-Output (MIMO) precoding based on Distributed Antenna Systems (DASs) are provided. The transmission method includes determining active antenna ports, for a User Equipment (UE) having multiple receive antennas, from among a plurality of Distributed Antenna Ports (DAPs) evenly placed in a service area; assigning a Multiple-Input and Multiple-Output (MIMO) mode to the UE and notifying the UE of the MIMO mode assignment; determining a signal precoding vector on a basis of feedback information for the MIMO mode received from the UE; and precoding a signal using the signal precoding vector and transmitting the precoded signal through the active antenna ports.
