Abstract

A user terminal includes a control section that measures a Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR), based on a channel measurement resource at a given order in a channel measurement resource set and an interference measurement resource at the given order in an interference measurement resource set, and a transmitting section that reports the SINR and an indicator related to the given order. According to an aspect of the present disclosure, it is possible to perform appropriate beam reporting.

Claims (23)

1. A terminal comprising:

a receiver that receives Channel State Information (CSI) report configuration information having report quantity information that indicates a CSI parameter to report; and

a processor that, when the report quantity information indicates an index k of a Channel Measurement Resource (CMR) and a Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR), one CMR set includes a plurality of CMRs and one Interference Measurement Resource (IMR) set includes a plurality of IMRs, derives the SINR corresponding to the index,

wherein the index k of the CMR is an integer equal to or greater than 0 and the index k of the CMR corresponds to (k+1) th CMR in the CMR set and to (k+1) th IMR in the IMR set,

wherein the processor controls to report capability information regarding the SINR and the capability information includes a maximum number of CMRs to report, and

wherein the index k of the CMR is a Synchronization Signal Block Resource Indicator (SSBRI).

2. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein the CMR is a non-zero power CSI-RS resource or a synchronization signal resource, and the IMR is a CSI interference measurement resource.

3. The terminal according to claim 1 , wherein when reporting a plurality of SINRs, the control section controls to report one SINR and one or more differential SINRs from the one SINR.

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

receiving Channel State Information (CSI) report configuration information having report quantity information that indicates a CSI parameter to report;

when the report quantity information indicates an index k of a Channel Measurement Resource (CMR) and a Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR), one CMR set includes a plurality of CMRs and one Interference Measurement Resource (IMR) set includes a plurality of IMRs, deriving the SINR corresponding to the index; and

reporting capability information regarding the SINR and the capability information includes a maximum number of CMRs to report,

wherein the index k of the CMR is an integer equal to or greater than 0 and the index k of the CMR corresponds to (k+1) th CMR in the CMR set and to (k+1) th IMR in the IMR set, and

wherein the index k of the CMR is a Synchronization Signal Block Resource Indicator (SSBRI).

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

the base station comprises:

a transmitter that transmits Channel State Information (CSI) report configuration information having report quantity information that indicates a CSI parameter to report, and

the terminal comprises:

a receiver that receives the CSI report configuration information; and

a processor that, when the report quantity information indicates an index k of a Channel Measurement Resource (CMR) and a Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR), one CMR set includes a plurality of CMRs and one Interference Measurement Resource (IMR) set includes a plurality of IMRs, derives the SINR corresponding to the index,

wherein the index k of the CMR is an integer equal to or greater than 0 and the index k of the CMR corresponds to (k+1) th CMR in the CMR set and to (k+1) th IMR in the IMR set,

wherein the processor controls to report capability information regarding the SINR and the capability information includes a maximum number of CMRs to report, and

wherein the index k of the CMR is a Synchronization Signal Block Resource Indicator (SSBRI).
