Abstract

A wireless communication apparatus for supporting communication with multiple transmission and reception points (TRPs) includes a radio frequency integrated circuit (RFIC) configured to receive a first reference signal from a first TRP and a second reference signal from a second TRP, and processing circuitry configured to estimate channels of a plurality of subcarriers based on at least one of the first reference signal or the second reference signal, determine a beamforming parameter based on the estimated channels, the beamforming parameter being determined based on a capacity of an effective channel between the wireless communication apparatus and both the first TRP and the second TRP, and adjust a reception beam based on the beamforming parameter, and the RFIC being configured to receive a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) from the first TRP through the adjusted reception beam, and receive a second PDSCH from the second TRP.
