Abstract

The present application provide a reference signal transmitting method, including: notifying a User Equipment (UE) of a grid index and a reference signal port index of the UE, wherein a coverage area of a base station is divided into grids, the grid index of the UE is an index of a grid where the UE is located; generating a reference signal based on the grid index; and transmitting the reference signal on corresponding time-frequency resources based on the grid index and the reference signal port index. The present application further provides a corresponding reference signal transmitting apparatus, and a scheduling method and apparatus. According to the technical solution provided by the present application, it is possible to increase the number of ports that the system can support at the same time with low reference resource overhead, and to ensure that the interference of the reference signal is controllable and eliminable, thereby ensuring transmission reliability.
