Abstract

A user terminal includes a measurement unit that performs measurement for calculating channel state information, a configuration unit that configures two subframe sets including a first subframe set and a second subframe set based on first information and second information, a transmission unit that transmits channel state information reports corresponding to the first subframe set and channel state information reports corresponding to the second subframe set. In a case where the second information is configured, the first information is not configured, and in a case where a plurality of channel state information reports of the same serving cell collides for a user terminal for which the two subframe sets are configured based on the second information, and in a case where the plurality of channel state information reports has physical uplink control channel reporting types having the same priority, the channel state information reports corresponding to the second subframe set are dropped.

Claims (38)

1. A user equipment comprising:

measurement circuitry that performs measurement for computing channel state information;

reception circuitry that receives first information or second information from a base station device;

configuring circuitry that configures 1st subframe sets based on the first information, and configures 2nd subframe sets based on the second information, the 1st subframe sets including a first subframe set and a second subframe set, and the 2nd subframe sets including a third subframe set and a fourth subframe set; and

transmitting circuitry that transmits a channel state information report corresponding to at least one of the first subframe set, the second subframe set, the third subframe set, and the fourth subframe set; wherein

the first information is not configured if the second information is configured, and

the channel state information report corresponding to the fourth subframe set is dropped in a case that:

the user equipment is configured with the 2nd subframe sets based on the second information; and

collision between channel state information reports of a same serving cell with physical uplink control channel reporting types of a same priority occurs.

2. The user equipment according to claim 1 , wherein collision between channel state information reports of the same serving cell with the physical uplink control channel reporting type of the same priority does not occur if the channel state information reports correspond to the 1st subframe sets based on the first information.

3. The user equipment according to claim 1 , wherein the channel state information includes at least a channel quality indicator.

4. The user equipment according to claim 1 , wherein the channel state information reports of the same serving cell with the physical uplink control channel reporting types of the same priority include the channel state information report corresponding to at least one of the first subframe set, the second subframe set, the third subframe set, and the fourth subframe set.

5. A base station device comprising:

transmitting circuitry that transmits first information or second information to configure 1st sets and 2nd subframe sets, the 1st subframe sets including a first subframe set and a second subframe set, and the 2nd subframe sets including a third subframe set and a fourth subframe set; and

receiving circuitry that receives a channel state information report corresponding to at least one of the first subframe set, the second subframe set, the third subframe set, and the fourth subframe set, wherein

the transmitting circuitry does not transmit the first information if the second information is transmitted, and

the channel state information report corresponding to the fourth subframe set is dropped in a case that:

the user equipment is configured with the 2nd subframe sets based on the second information, and

collision between channel state information reports of a same serving cell with physical uplink control channel reporting types of a same priority occurs.

6. The base station device according to claim 5 , wherein collision between channel state information reports of the same serving cell with the physical uplink control channel reporting type of the same priority does not occur if the channel state information reports correspond to the 1st subframe sets based on the first information.

7. The base station device according to claim 5 , wherein the channel state information includes at least a channel quality indicator.

8. The base station device according to claim 5 , wherein the channel state information reports of the same serving cell with the physical uplink control channel reporting types of the same priority include the channel state information report corresponding to at least one of the first subframe set, the second subframe set, the third subframe set, and the fourth subframe set.

9. A communication method of a user equipment, the communication method comprising:

performing measurement for computing channel state information;

receiving first information or second information from a base station device;

configuring 1st subframe sets based on the first information and 2nd subframe sets based on the second information, the 1st subframe sets including, a first subframe set and a second subframe set, and the 2nd subframe sets including a third subframe set and a fourth subframe set; and

transmitting a channel state information report corresponding to at least one of the first subframe set, the second subframe set, the third subframe set and the fourth subframe set; wherein

the first information is not configured if the second information is configured, and

the channel state information report corresponding to the fourth subframe set is dropped in a case that:

the user equipment is configured with the 2nd subframe sets based on the second information, and

collision between channel state information reports of a same serving cell with physical uplink control channel reporting types of a same priority occurs.

10. A communication method of a base station device, the communication method comprising:

transmitting first information or second information to configure 1st subframe sets and 2nd subframe sets, the 1st subframe sets including a first subframe set and a second subframe set, and the 2nd subframe sets including a third subframe set and a fourth subframe set; and

receiving a channel state information report corresponding to at least one of the first subframe set, the second subframe set, the third subframe set, and the fourth subframe set, wherein

the first information is not transmitted if the second information is transmitted, and

the channel state information report corresponding to the fourth subframe set is dropped in a case that:

the user equipment is configured with the 2nd subframe sets based on the second information, and

collision between channel state information reports of a same serving cell with physical uplink control channel reporting types of a same priority occurs.
