Patent ID: 8441936

Claim:
A receiving method for use by a receiving apparatus for receiving data and control information in a single carrier system, the method comprising: transmitting, to a mobile station, (i) information for determining a modulation and coding scheme (MCS), and (ii) offset information; receiving, from the mobile station, data modulated and coded according to an MCS that is determined by the mobile station based on the information for determining the MCS; and receiving, from the mobile station, control information coded with a coding rate that is calculated by the mobile station according to arranged information contained in the mobile station, the arranged information defining a relationship among a coding rate portion of the MCS for the data, the offset information, and the coding rate for the control information, wherein a value of the offset information is used by the mobile station to adjust the coding rate portion of the MCS; wherein a total bit length of the offset information is smaller than a total bit length of the information for determining the MCS.
