Abstract
[Object] To make it possible to use a combination of subarrays desirable for multilayer MIMO. [Solution] Provided is an apparatus, including: an acquiring unit configured to acquire subarray information indicating a plurality of subarrays usable for multilayer Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO); and a control unit configured to notify a terminal apparatus of the subarray information.
Claims16
An apparatus, comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- acquire subarray information indicating a plurality of subarrays usable for multilayer Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO);
- notify a terminal apparatus of the subarray information, wherein the terminal apparatus is a terminal apparatus that performs a report related to a combination of two or more subarrays included in the plurality of subarrays;
- and
- decide a combination of two or more subarrays to be used for the multilayer MIMO for the terminal apparatus on the basis of the report performed by the terminal apparatus, wherein the combination of the two or more subarrays to be used for the multilayer MIMO for the terminal apparatus does not include more than a predetermined number of subarrays that share one or more antenna ports.
