- a signal When transmitting a packet in a wireless communication system, a signal may be distorted in the transmission process because the transmitted packet is transmitted through a wireless channel. In order to correctly receive the distorted signal at the receiving end, the distortion must be corrected in the received signal using the channel information. In order to find out the channel information, a signal known to both the transmitting side and the receiving side is transmitted, and a method of finding the channel information with a distortion degree when the signal is received through the channel is mainly used. The signal is called a pilot signal or a reference signal.
- RSs can be classified into two types according to their purpose.
- One is an RS used for channel information acquisition, and the other is an RS used for data demodulation. Since the former is an RS for allowing the UE to acquire downlink channel information, the UE should be transmitted over a wide bandwidth. Even if a UE does not receive downlink data in a specific subframe, it should be able to receive and measure the corresponding RS. It is also used for measurements, etc.

As RS for up to eight transmit antenna ports, both RS for channel measurement and RS for data demodulation should be considered.
- Backward compatibi 1 i-ty One of the important considerations in designing an LTE-A system is backward compatibi 1 i-ty.

It is necessary to prevent interference from occurring. Therefore, in order for the MU-MIM0 operation to be performed correctly, the channel state information with higher accuracy than the single user-MIM0 (SU-MIM0) method should be fed back.
