wherein the radio terminal is configured to transmit, to the radio base station, data that is mapped to the one or more of radio resources, in either or both of a first manner and a second manner, the first manner being a manner where the radio terminal receives a control signal associated with the data to be transmitted across a plurality of time resource, the second manner being a manner where the radio terminal receives a control signal associated with the data to be transmitted across a plurality of frequency resource,

wherein the control signal includes first information and second information, the first information indicating a value regarding to either or both of a number of the plurality of time resources in the first manner and a number of the plurality of frequency resources in the second manner, the second information indicating a first resource amount being any of the plurality of resource amounts,

wherein the radio terminal is configured to

identify a first data size corresponding to a size of data transmitted to the radio base station, the first data size being dependent on the value indicated by the first information, the first resource amount indicated by the second information, and the plurality of correspondence information, and

wherein the radio base station is configured to decode the data from the radio terminal.

2. The wireless communication system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the radio terminal is configured to identify the first data size by using a second resource amount and the plurality of correspondence information, the second resource amount being obtained by multiplying the value indicated by the first information with the first resource amount indicated by the second information.

3. The wireless communication system according to claim

wherein wherein the radio terminal is configured to

identify a second data size based on the first resource amount and the plurality of correspondence information,

identify the first data size by multiplying the value indicated by the first information with the second data size.

4. A method for wireless communication, the method comprising:

in a wireless communication system including a radio terminal configured to perform a transmission by using one or more of radio resources each of which has a frequency band and a time period; and a radio base station configured to perform a reception of a signal transmitted from the radio terminal,

by the radio terminal, storing a plurality of correspondence information each of which indicates a correspondence between a resource amount and a data size, the data size indicating size of data able to be transmitted based on the resource amount, the resource amount being any of a plurality of resource amounts to be assigned to the one or more of radio resources by the radio base station,

by the radio terminal, transmitting, to the radio base station, data that is mapped to the one or more of radio resources, in either or both of a first manner and a second manner, the first manner being a manner where the radio terminal receives a control signal associated with the data to be transmitted across a plurality of time resource, the second manner being a manner where the radio terminal receives a control signal associated with the data to be transmitted across a plurality of frequency resource, wherein the control signal includes first information and second information, the first information indicating a value regarding to either or both of a number of the plurality of time resources in the first manner and a number of the plurality of frequency resources in the second manner, the second information indicating a first resource amount being any of the plurality of resource amounts,

by the radio terminal,

identifying a first data size corresponding to a size of data transmitted to the radio base station, the first data size being dependent on the value indicated by the first information, the first resource amount indicated by the second infomiation, and the plurality of correspondence information, and

by the radio base station,

decoding the data from the radio terminal.

5. A radio base station configured to wirelessly communicate with a radio terminal which configured to perform a transmission by using one or more of radio resources each of which has a frequency band and a time period, wherein the radio base station comprises:

a processing circuitry configured to

transmit a control signal to the radio terminal and receive the data from the radio terminal, the data being mapped to the one or more of radio resources by either or both of a first manner and a second manner, the first manner being a manner where the radio base station transmits the control signal associated with the data to be transmitted across a plurality of time resource, the second manner being a manner where the radio base station transmits the control signal associated with the data to be transmitted across a plurality of frequency resource, wherein the control signal includes first information and second information, the first information indicating a value regarding to either or both of a number of the plurality of time resources in the first manner and a number of the plurality of frequency resources in the second manner, the second information indicating a first resource amount being any of the plurality of resource amounts, and

receive and decode the data from the radio terminal,
