Optionally, P l ' may indicate the number of ports selected by the terminal side device for the lth layer transmission layer, and P l ' may be set by the network side device or selected and reported by the terminal side device.

[0098] For example, the first information may be a set of intersections of the ports selected by each transmission layer, and the second information may be the remaining ports selected by each transmission layer other than the set of intersections.
[0099] If the base station configures a CSI-RS resource including X=32 ports for the UE, performs two-layer data transmission with rank=2, and the ports selected in the two polarization directions are the same, i.e., the positions of the ports selected in the two polarization directions are the same, then P=X / 2=16. If each layer selects 16 and 12 ports in the two polarization directions, respectively, i.e., P1'=16 and P2'=12, and these are reported by the UE to the base station, then K1,1=8 and K2,1=6.

As shown in FIG. 2, the distribution of ports selected by terminals in one polarization direction in two-layer transmission is shown.

[0103] If four-layer data transmission with rank=4 is performed and the ports selected in the two polarization directions are the same, that is, the positions of the ports selected in the two polarization directions are the same, then P=X / 2=16. If the first and second layers each select 16 ports in the two polarization directions, and the third and fourth layers each select 12 ports, that is, P1'=P2'=16 and P3'=P4'=8, and these are reported by the UE to the base station, then K1,1=K2,1=8, K3,1=K 4,1 =4.
