20110206154 | WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM AND PRECODING METHOD - The present invention provides a precoding method for use in a wireless communications system. According to the precoding method of the present invention, a serving base station and cooperative communication base stations employ an identical precoding matrix so as to weight transmission signals and then transmit them. The weighting stands for multiplication of results of overall precoding or each layer precoding process by weight values at the serving base station and the cooperative communication base stations. A user device corresponding to the serving base station and the cooperative communication base stations receives a signal which is obtained by an operation in which the serving base station and the cooperative communication base stations perform an identical precoding process and additively combine results of overall precoding or each layer precoding process with one another. The user device feeds back information which includes (i) precoding matrix information for the serving base station and the cooperative communication base stations, (ii) weight vector information for either overall precoding or layer precoding, and (iii) a quantized value of channel quality. This feedback information is thus advantageous in that its signaling information amount is small. | 08-25-2011 |

The base station judges, based on results of decoding and detecting transmitted data or feedback results from the sites in the transmission route, whether or not the current uplink transmission is successful or whether to adjust the uplink retransmission. | 01-19-2012 |
