Abstract

In a case that a CQI table applied to interpret a CSI report is changed from a first CQI table including modulation schemes up to 64QAM to a second CQI table including modulation schemes up to 256QAM, information on a CQI table selection indicating applicability of the second CQI table and a CSI subframe set indicating subframes for which a CQI table selected in the CQI table is used are transmitted. In a case that the CQI table applied to interpret the CSI report is changed from the second CQI table to a third CQI table including modulation schemes up to 1024QAM, only the information on the CQI table selection indicating applicability of the third CQI table is transmitted.
