Abstract
A method and system for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) mode control are provided. The method includes: receiving signaling sent by a network side, where the signaling includes uplink MIMO control information; and controlling an uplink MIMO mode according to the uplink MIMO control information. After an uplink MIMO is introduced to a communication system, the uplink MIMO mode can be controlled to switch freely among start, stop, and continuation through a mechanism corresponding to an operation of a downlink MIMO mode.
