Abstract

A user terminal, according to the present invention, has a receiving section that receives resource information, which indicates a single or a plurality of uplink control channel resources, per configuration identifier related to channel state information (CSI) reporting, and a control section that selects an uplink control channel resource to use to transmit a plurality of CSIs, based on the resource information.

Claims (20)

1. A terminal comprising:

a receiver that receives information, which indicates a plurality of uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources used by a plurality of channel state information (CSI) reports, configured by higher layer signaling; and

a processor that determines a single PUCCH resource, from the plurality of PUCCH resources, to be used for the plurality of CSI reports based on a capacity of each of the plurality of PUCCH resources,

wherein the capacity of each of the plurality of PUCCH resources is determined based on code rates of each of the plurality of PUCCH resources.

2. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein, when the capacity of a first PUCCH resource is larger than the capacity of a second PUCCH resource among the plurality of PUCCH resources and when the second PUCCH resource is capable of transmitting all of the plurality of CSI reports, the processor determines the second PUCCH resource to be the single PUCCH resource to be used for the plurality of CSI reports, and when the second PUCCH resource is not capable of transmission all of the plurality of CSI reports, the processor determines the first PUCCH resource to be the single PUCCH resource to be used for the plurality of CSI reports.

3. A radio communication method for a terminal, comprising:

receiving information, which indicates a plurality of uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources used by a plurality of channel state information (CSI) reports, configured by higher layer signaling; and

determining a single PUCCH resource, from the plurality of PUCCH resources, to be used for the plurality of CSI reports based on a capacity of each of the plurality of PUCCH resources,

wherein the capacity of each of the plurality of PUCCH resources is determined based on code rates of each of the plurality of PUCCH resources.

4. A base station comprising:

a transmitter that transmits information, to a terminal, which indicates a plurality of uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources used by a plurality of channel state information (CSI) reports, by higher layer signaling; and

a processor that controls to determine, in the terminal, a single PUCCH resource, from the plurality of PUCCH resources, to be used for the plurality of CSI reports based on a capacity of each of the plurality of PUCCH resources,

wherein the capacity of each of the plurality of PUCCH resources is determined based on code rates of each of the plurality of PUCCH resources.

5. A system comprising a base station and a terminal, wherein:

the base station comprises:

a transmitter that transmits information, to the terminal, which indicates a plurality of uplink control channel (PUCCH) resources used by a plurality of channel state information (CSI) reports, by higher layer signaling, and

the terminal comprises:

a receiver that receives the information; and

a processor that determines a single PUCCH resource, from the plurality of PUCCH resources, to be used for the plurality of CSI reports based on a capacity of each of the plurality of PUCCH resources,

wherein the capacity of each of the plurality of PUCCH resources is determined based on code rates of each of the plurality of PUCCH resources.
