RADIO COMMUNICATION DEVICE AND RADIO COMMUNICATION METHOD

A radio communication device includes: a transmission/reception unit capable of spatially multiplexing signals to be transmitted to a plurality of counterpart devices with one frequency, and transmitting the signals at the same time, by using a hybrid beamforming method combining analog beamforming and digital precoding, the counterpart devices being counterpart radio communication devices; and a control unit to determine a number of transmission array(s) to be allocated to each of the counterpart devices and a number of transmission(s) of reference signal(s) to be transmitted to each of the counterpart devices on the basis of channel state information fed back from each of the counterpart devices.
