Abstract

Dans un mode de réalisation, l'invention concerne un procédé de retour d'informations sur des PMI permettant d'intégrer des PMI respectifs correspondants de différentes sous-porteuses sur la base du même PMI dans certains articles de différentes sous-porteuses dans différents scénarios, de telle sorte qu'un équipement utilisateur (UE) renvoie une seule une fois, dans un procédé de détermination de matrices de précodage, un PMI commun qui est utilisé pour indiquer des matrices de précodage de sous-porteuses différentes ; une station de base détermine les matrices de précodage des sous-porteuses à travers le PMI commun et des PMI non communs (un premier PMI et un second PMI dans ce mode de réalisation) dans les différentes sous-porteuses ; et l'UE envoie à la station de base le PMI qui peut être utilisé couramment par les sous-porteuses et les PMI non communs qui ne peuvent pas être utilisés couramment par les sous-porteuses. Dans un procédé de détermination de matrices de précodage de deux sous-porteuses, le nombre total de PMI renvoyé est K, ce dernier étant utilisé pour indiquer Q matrices de précodage dans les deux sous-porteuses, et le nombre K de PMI renvoyés est inférieur au nombre Q, ce qui permet de réaliser des économies de ressource de canal.
