Second, PMI is a value reflecting a spatial characteristic of a channel and indicates a precoding matrix index of the eNB preferred by the UE based on a metric of Signal-to-Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR). Lastly, CQI is information indicating the strength of a channel and indicates a reception SINR obtainable when the eNB uses PMI.
In an evolved communication system such as an LTE-A system, multi-user diversity using Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) is additionally obtained. Since interference between UEs multiplexed in an antenna domain exists in the MU-MIMO scheme, CSI accuracy may greatly affect not only interference of a UE that has reported CSI but also interference of other multiplexed UEs. Hence, in order to correctly perform MU-MIMO operation, it is necessary to report CSI having accuracy higher than that of a Single User-MIMO (SU-MIMO) scheme.
Accordingly, LTE-A standard has determined that a final PMI should be separately designed into W1, which a long-term and/or wideband PMI, and W2, which is a short-term and/or subband PMI.
An example of a hierarchical codebook transform scheme configuring one final PMI from among W1 and W2 may use a long-term covariance matrix of a channel as indicated in Equation 8: W=norm(W1W2)??[Equation 8]
In Equation 8, W2 of a short-term PMI indicates a codeword of a codebook configured to reflect short-term channel information, W denotes a codeword of a final codebook, and norm(A) indicates a matrix in which a norm of each column of a matrix A is normalized to 1.
The detailed configurations of W1 and W2 are shown in Equation 9:
