Abstract

A UE receives i) first information (info1) used for configuring a first set and a second set of downlink component carriers (DCCs) (hereinafter “set1” and “set2”), set1 corresponds to a first value of a field of second information (info2), set2 corresponding to a second value of the field of info2, info2 being used for requesting a transmission of channel state information (CSI), and ii) downlink control information (DCI) including info2, using a PDCCH, where the DCI being used for scheduling of a PUSCH in one uplink component carrier. The UE transmits, using the PUSCH, a) the CSI for set1 which is configured in a case that the DCI including info2 is received and a value of the field of info2 is the first value, and b) the CSI for set2 which is configured in a case that the DCI including info2 is received and a value of the field of info2 is the second value.
