Connecticut Compromise
Virginia Plan
The Connecticut Compromise proposed a bicameral legislature with two senators per state and a House of Representatives based on population.
The two house legislature was proposed by the Great Compromise/Connecicut Compromise. The Plan that recommended representation be determined by population was Virginia Plan, because they had a very large population, so a legislature based on population would give Virginia a lot of influence in the new nation.

Roger Sherman
The Connecticut Compromise proposed a bicameral legislature with two senators per state and a House of Representatives based on population.
The continental congress couldn't decide upon a Senate based on population or an equal Senate with two representatives from each state. A compromise was made and to this day we have a bicameral legislature, the house of representatives ( population based ) and the Senate ( fixed amount of representatives ).
You mean bicameral legislature, and it is a two house system of representation being the house of representatives (the number of representatives here are based on a states population) and the senate (in which every state gets two representatives).
