Abstract

A Mobile Station (MS) is operable to select a precoding matrix in a multi-antenna wireless communication system. The method includes receiving, from a serving Base Station (BS), information on a precoding matrix of which use is prohibited and a precoding matrix to be used by a neighbor BS, estimating an interference signal for the precoding matrix to be used by the neighbor BS, and selecting a precoding matrix to be used by the serving BS by considering the estimated interference signal from the remaining precoding matrixes except for the precoding matrix of which use is prohibited among precoding matrixes used by the serving BS.
