METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING/RECEIVING CHANNEL QUALITY INFORMATION IN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM USING AN ORTHOGONAL FREQUENCY DIVISION MULTIPLEXING SCHEME

摘要

A method for transmitting channel quality information (CQI) from a receiver station to a transmitter station in a wireless communication system which includes diversity mode consisted of spaced apart subcarriers and band AMC mode consisted of a number of bands comprised of a predetermined number of adjacent subcarriers. The method comprises the steps of transmitting an average CINR(Carrier to Interference and Noise Ratio) value for a full frequency band if the receiver station operates in the diversity mode; transmitting a differential CINR of a predetermined number of bins if the receiver station operates in the band AMC mode.
