Abstract
The base station allocates, to one terminal, at least one transmission layer and allocates at least one resource block that is a minimum allocation unit of a communication resource in each transmission layer, to transmit a signal to the terminal, and includes processing units each associated with one of the transmission layers, the processing units being equal in number to the transmission layers. Each processing unit includes a reference signal generation unit to generate a reference signal to be used by the terminal in demodulation processing on a received signal, and an information processing unit to determine an arrangement of the resource block in which to transmit the reference signal to the terminal, based on at least one of a state of a channel between the base station and the terminal or information on the resource block to be used in transmission of the reference signal in an adjacent cell.
