The present invention relates to NR communication. A method for a user equipment provided with a plurality of panels or antennas to transmit an uplink signal to a plurality of transmission reception points (TRPs) comprises the steps of: receiving Downlink Control Indicators (DCI) including first to n-th field values; and transmitting identical uplink data to the plurality of TRPs by using the same number of antenna ports on the basis of the DCIs, wherein the first field value among the first to n-th field values may be determined on the basis of a Transmission Rank Indicator (TRI) and a Transmit Precoder Matrix Indicator (TPMI) corresponding to the selected first TRP among the plurality of TRPs, the second to n-th field values may be determined on the basis of second to n-th TPMIs respectively corresponding to the remaining second to n-th TRPs other than the selected first TRP, and the TRIs corresponding to the second to n-th field values may be determined on the basis of the TRI in the first field value.

An electronic device includes a first antenna facing a first direction, a second antenna facing a second direction, and at least one processor configured to obtain a first value indicating a quality of a first signal received via a beam formed by using the first antenna and a second value indicating a quality of a second signal received via a beam formed by using the second antenna; based on identifying that a value from among the first value and the second value is greater than or equal to a reference value, enable both the first antenna and the second antenna; based on identifying that the first value is less than the reference value and is greater than or equal to the second value, enable the first antenna; and based on identifying that the second value is less than the reference value and is greater than the first value, enable the second antenna.

This invention is a transmission device capable of enhancing the reception characteristics of a terminal when employing transmit diversity using two antenna ports in an ePDCCH. In a base station (100) that transmits a reference signal to a terminal (200) using two antenna ports, a setting unit (102), on the basis of the reception quality of the terminal, sets as the aforementioned two antenna ports either a first antenna port pair for which DMRS (reference signals) do not undergo mutual code multiplexing, or a second antenna port pair for which the DMRS do undergo code multiplexing. A transmitter (109) transmits the DMRS from the two antenna ports set in the setting unit (102).

A communication apparatus capable of wireless communication with another communication apparatus via a first communication path and a second communication path sets a directivity of an antenna to a first directivity capable of wireless communication via the first communication path and receives data from the another communication apparatus via the first communication path. When the communication apparatus sends an acknowledgement signal to the another communication apparatus via the first communication path in response to reception of the data, the communication apparatus sets the directivity of the antenna to a second directivity capable of wireless communication via the first communication path and wireless communication via the second communication path for a set period thereafter.

A method for switching transmission methods in a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system may include: receiving scenario identification related data from a user equipment (UE) in a current transmission method; determining a target transmission method of the UE from at least two predefined transmission methods based on the scenario identification related data; and switching the current transmission method of the UE to the target transmission method.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a first sounding reference signal (SRS) configuration, wherein the first SRS configuration indicates a number of antenna ports on which an SRS is to be transmitted. The UE may determine that the number of antenna ports indicated by the first SRS configuration exceeds an antenna capability of the UE. The UE may transmit one or more SRSs using a second SRS configuration based at least in part on determining that the first SRS configuration exceeds the antenna capability of the UE. Numerous other aspects are described.

A method of configuring a multichannel uplink transmission comprising multiple channels between a wireless communication device and multiple receive panels of at least one network node is provided. The multiple receive panels and the at least one network node are connected via backhaul links. The method is carried out by the wireless communication device. The method comprises receiving, from the at least one network node, a downlink message encoding control data for the multichannel uplink transmission, the control data being associated with the backhaul links. The method further comprises configuring the multichannel uplink transmission based on the control data.

Some aspects relate to apparatuses and methods for selecting a receiving beam based on hybrid channel based beamforming and codebook based beamforming. A user equipment (UE) can determine, based on a first measurement related to signal to noise ratio (SNR) and predetermined threshold values, whether the UE is in a low SNR state. If the UE is in a low SRN state, the UE can derive an estimated channel covariance matrix R.sub.CH for channels at a set of antenna elements of the UE based on channel based beamforming (CHBF). Afterwards, a set of test beams {0, . . . N.sub.test−1} is selected based on the channel covariance matrix R.sub.CH, and a set of codebook measurement beams is further selected based on the set of test beams. A receiving beam is selected based on a set of measurements performed on the set of codebook measurement beams at the measurement opportunity for codebook based beamforming (CBBF).

A method and an apparatus for feeding back channel state information (CSI) of user equipment (UE) in a communication system are disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: receiving, from a base station, configuration information related to a plurality of CSI reports; identifying the setting of the plurality of CSI reports corresponding to a plurality of measurement resources, on the basis of the configuration information; generating a first CSI report corresponding to a first measurement resource and a second CSI report corresponding to a second measurement resource when the plurality of CSI reports are set; and transmitting the first CSI report and the second. CSI report to the base station.

Provided are an information feedback method and apparatus, an information receiving method and apparatus, a device, and a storage medium. The information feedback includes the following: a second node configures a report configuration and sends the report configuration to a first node; the first node receives the report configuration sent by the second node and determines channel state information according to the report configuration, where the channel state information includes a reference signal, and the reference signal satisfies a grouping criterion associated with the report configuration; the channel state information is fed back to the second node through a report instance; and the second node receives the channel state information fed back by the first node through the report instance.
