Abstract
To provide a terminal device which can effectively reduce interference among beams in FD-MIMO. There is provided a terminal device including: a control unit configured to make a measurement report associated with antenna ports, for reception strength of a weighted reference signal which is allocated to each of the antenna ports of a base station in a connected state and which is to be beamformed from the base station, for each of one or more antenna ports.

A terminal device comprising:
- a control unit configured to make a measurement report associated with antenna ports, for reception strength of a weighted reference signal which is allocated to each of the antenna ports of a base station in a connected state and which is to be beamformed from the base station, for each of one or more antenna ports.
A wireless communication device comprising:
- a transmitting unit configured to allocate a weighted reference signal to each of antenna ports, and beamform and transmit the allocated weighted reference signal;
- and
- an acquisition unit configured to acquire a measurement report associated with the antenna ports for reception strength of the reference signal from a terminal device in a connected state for each of the one or more antenna ports.
A communication method comprising:
- allocating a weighted reference signal to each of antenna ports, and beamforming and transmitting the allocated weighted reference signal;
- and
- acquiring a measurement report associated with the antenna ports for reception strength of the reference signal from a terminal device in a connected state for each of the one or more antenna ports.
