Claim Text:
1. A method for determining transport block size in a wireless communication system comprising of: selecting plurality of transport block sizes near to the queue size of the user data and calculating the code rate for the plurality of selected transport block sizes; calculating a code rate proportionally derived from Channel Quality Information (CQI) index; comparing the code rates of the plurality of selected transport block sizes with the code rate derived from CQI index and filtering the selected transport block sizes having number of zero padding below a threshold value and having code rates equal or less than the code rate derived from CQI index; selecting one transport block for each modulation order from among the filtered transport block sizes which requires a minimal number of Physical Resource Blocks (PRBs) to transmit; determining one transport block size from among each modulation order by calculating the modulation order derived from CQI index to be used, such that the PRBs of the determined transport block size is less than a threshold value on comparison with the PRBs of other filtered transport block sizes having lower PRBs.
