Abstract
A reception processor receives the cell detection reference signals, each of the cell detection reference signals being transmitted from corresponding one of a plurality of cells. An RRM report generator generates measurement information indicating a measurement result of reception quality measured using the cell detection reference signal. A transmission processor transmits the measurement information. The cell detection reference signals are mapped to any one of a plurality of candidate resources, which is a part of a plurality of resources set for other reference signals in a subframe to which the cell detection reference signals are mapped.
Claims8
An integrated circuit comprising:
- transmission circuitry, which, in operation, controls transmitting of Channel State Information Reference Signals (CSI-RSs) in a subframe, wherein
- a first portion of resources assigned to the CSI-RSs in the subframe are non-transmission resources for the CSI-RSs,
- a second portion of the resources assigned to the CSI-RSs in the subframe are transmission resources for the CSI-RSs,
- discovery signals are transmitted from one or more cells for cell detection in the first portion of resources, and
- the first portion of the resources are determined based on a cell identification number of the one or more cells;
- and
- reception circuitry, which, in operation, controls receiving of a measurement report indicating a measurement result of reception quality measured using the discovery signals.
