In the present invention, a precoding matrix to enable an effective signal-to-noise ratio (ESNR) to have a maximum value with respect to a signal vector that requires retransmission is selected in a codebook and fed back to a transmitter. Accordingly, since the effective signal-to-noise ratio has the maximum value after the signal vector is retransmitted, it is possible to minimize a reception error probability of retransmission.

A repeater performs wireless communication with a terminal located in a jurisdiction repetition area by using one transmitting/receiving antenna, and communicates with a base station by using multiple transmitting/receiving antennas.

In this operation, the signal transmitted to the base station is processed by the repeater such that a specific receiving antenna the base station can receive the signal with the largest strength.

Abstract: Respective codewords of quantization codebooks corresponding to a number of data streams are selected based on channel information estimated by a received training symbol. A stream mode is selected among stream modes to determine a modulation method applied to each data stream.

The transmitting apparatus selects the number of transmitted data streams and the modulation method based on the transmitted index of feedback streams by the feedback operation.
