Abstract
Provided herein is a communication method using MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) technology for communicating with a terminal included in each of a plurality of base station cells using a communication apparatus, the method including calculating, by the communication apparatus, the number of terminals included inside a base station cell; generating, by the communication apparatus, pilot signals corresponding to the calculated number of terminals; and allocating, by the communication apparatus, the pilot signals to a terminal that may maximize a network capacity based on the generated pilot signals.
