Abstract
A terminal apparatus that communicates with a base station apparatus includes: a higher layer on which NAICS information is configured from the base station apparatus; and a control unit that, in a case where the NAICS information has been configured, determines the number of layers, antenna port numbers, and scrambling identities of a signal addressed to the terminal apparatus and an interfering signal. The terminal apparatus further includes a receiving unit that receives downlink control information, and the control unit determines at least one of the number of layers, antenna port number, and scrambling identity of the interfering signal on the basis of the downlink control information.
