A method and a controller for controlling a transmitting node in a wireless telecommunications network, the wireless telecommunications network including a receiving node, wherein the transmitting node includes a plurality of antenna ports, the method including determining a count of antenna ports, being one or more of the transmitting node's plurality of antenna ports, to use in communications with the receiving node based on: a balance between a first performance metric related to a coherence interval and having a positive relationship with the count of antenna ports and a second performance metric related to the coherence interval and having a negative relationship with the count of antenna ports, and/or a measure of the coherence interval in communications with the receiving node; and causing the transmitting node to use the count of antenna ports in communications with the receiving node.

Provided is a wireless communication system that detects an object inside a communication area including: a base station device; and a terminal device, in which the base station device controls a timing for transmitting a reference signal for measuring a state of a propagation path on the basis of a pilot signal included in a wireless signal received from the terminal device during wireless communication and detects an object inside the communication area on the basis of propagation state information indicating a state of the propagation path received from the terminal device during wireless sensing, and the terminal device transmits, to the base station device, propagation state information measured on the basis of a reference signal received from the base station device. It is thus possible to transmit the reference signal for measuring a state of the propagation path without degrading a throughput of wireless communication.
