User equipment and reporting method

1. A terminal comprising:

a receiver that receives an instruction message related to calculation of a channel quality indicator; and

a transmitter that selects an index of the channel quality indicator in accordance with one of a plurality of channel quality indicator sets,

wherein the transmitter reports the index of the channel quality indicator, which is calculated in accordance with the instruction message related to the calculation of the channel quality indicator, to a base station,

wherein each of the channel quality indicator sets is defined in correspondence with a block error rate that is indicated by the instruction message, and

wherein each of the channel quality indicator sets indicates correspondence between:

the index of the channel quality indicator; and

a modulation method and a coding rate.

2. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the instruction message related to the calculation of the channel quality indicator includes an instruction for calculating a channel quality indicator which is estimated to realize a communication with a block error rate or less.

3. The terminal according to claim 2 , wherein the transmitter reports an index of the channel quality indicator, which is estimated to realize a communication with a block error rate or less as indicated by the instruction message related to the calculation of the channel quality indicator, to the base station in a case of using a coding method instructed from the base station.

4. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the transmitter reports an index of the channel quality indicator, which is estimated to realize a communication with a block error rate or less as indicated by the instruction message related to the calculation of the channel quality indicator, to the base station in a case of using a coding method instructed from the base station.

5. A terminal comprising:

a processor that controls a communication with a base station by using a plurality of bearers which are different in a required condition for quality; and

a transmitter that reports an index of a channel quality indicator, which is estimated to realize a communication with a block error rate or less which is capable of corresponding to quality of at least any one bearer among the plurality of bearers, to the base station with respect to the bearer,

wherein in a case of reporting an index of a channel quality indicator, which is estimated to realize a communication with a block error rate or less which is capable of corresponding to quality of each of the plurality of bearers, to the base station with respect to each of the plurality of bearers, the transmitter switches a bearer, of which the index of the channel quality indicator is reported, for each sub-frame in which the index of the channel quality indicator is reported.

6. A communication method of a terminal comprising:

receiving an instruction message related to calculation of a channel quality indicator;

selecting an index of the channel quality indicator in accordance with one of a plurality of channel quality indicator sets; and

reporting the index of the channel quality indicator, which is calculated in accordance with the instruction message related to the calculation of the channel quality indicator, to a base station;

wherein each of the channel quality indicator sets is defined in correspondence with a block error rate that is indicated by the instruction message, and

wherein each of the channel quality indicator sets indicates correspondence between:

the index of the channel quality indicator; and

a modulation method and a coding rate.

7. A communication method of a terminal comprising:

controlling a communication with a base station by using a plurality of bearers which are different in a required condition for quality; and

reporting an index of a channel quality indicator, which is estimated to realize a communication with a block error rate or less which is capable of corresponding to quality of at least any one bearer among the plurality of bearers, to the base station with respect to the bearer,

wherein in a case of reporting an index of a channel quality indicator, which is estimated to realize a communication with a block error rate or less which is capable of corresponding to quality of each of the plurality of bearers, to the base station with respect to each of the plurality of bearers, switching a bearer, of which the index of the channel quality indicator is reported, for each sub-frame in which the index of the channel quality indicator is reported.

8. A wireless communication system comprising: a terminal; and a base station, wherein

the terminal includes:

a first receiver that receives an instruction message related to calculation of a channel quality indicator; and

a first transmitter that selects an index of the channel quality indicator in accordance with one of a plurality of channel quality indicator sets,

wherein the first transmitter reports the index of the channel quality indicator, which is calculated in accordance with the instruction message related to the calculation of the channel quality indicator, to the base station,

wherein each of the channel quality indicator sets is defined in correspondence with a block error rate that is indicated by the instruction message, and

wherein each of the channel quality indicator sets indicates correspondence between:

the index of the channel quality indicator; and

a modulation method and a coding rate, and

the base station includes:

a second transmitter that transmits the instruction message related to calculation of a channel quality indicator; and

a second receiver that receives the index of the channel quality indicator, which is calculated in accordance with the instruction message related to the calculation of the channel quality indicator, from the terminal.
