The present invention provides a method which determines an adjacent cell to carry out a coordinate multipoint transmission (CoMP) operation instead of performing the CoMP operation for all adjacent cells, in cases where precoding matrix indexes (PMI) of adjacent cells are limited to prevent interferences by adjacent cells in a multi-cell environment, thereby effectively reducing inter-cell interferences without causing an overhead.

Particular codebook entries used for a MIMO system of a lower dimension (i.e., having a relatively low number of antennas) can be used to generate a codebook for a MIMO system of a higher dimension (i.e., having a relatively high number of antennas). The entries in rank 1 of the codebook related to the MIMO system having four transmit antennas are used to newly construct entries for rank 1 through rank 8 of two base matrices for a MIMO base codebook related to eight transmit antennas.
