Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for receiving Channel Quality Indication (CQI) information, as well as a method and an apparatus for transmitting CQI information. The method for receiving CQI information includes: transmitting a higher layer configuration signaling message to a terminal; and receiving CQI information from the terminal. The CQI information is determined based on a CQI table obtained based on the higher layer configuration signaling message. With the above solutions, higher data transmission reliability and lower data transmission rate required for MTC terminals with coverage enhancement and 5G terminals can be achieved.

Claim (Index 10):
The method of  claim 9 , wherein the second CQI table has at least one of the following characteristics:\n a minimum value of r is smaller than 1/1024; the minimum value of r equals to 1/2048, 1/4096 or 1/3072; a combination of QPSK and r=449/1024 is excluded; the second CQI table comprises all combinations of QPSK and code rate, other than a combination of QPSK and r=449/1024, in the first CQI table; the second CQI table comprises one combination of 16 QAM and code rate in the first CQI table; the second CQI table comprises one of a combination of 16 QAM and a code rate of 490/1024 and a combination of 16 QAM and a code rate of 616/1024; among spectrum efficiency ratios for all pairs of neighboring combinations in the second CQI table, the spectrum efficiency ratio for the pair of the last combination and the last but one combination, is the highest; among spectrum efficiency ratios for all pairs of neighboring combinations in the second CQI table, the spectrum efficiency ratio for the pair of the second combination and the first combination, is the highest; among spectrum efficiency ratios for all pairs of neighboring combinations in the second CQI table, the spectrum efficiency ratio for the pair of the last combination and the last but one combination and the spectrum efficiency ratio for the pair of the second combination and the first combination, are higher than the spectrum efficiency ratios for other pairs of combinations; among spectrum efficiency ratios for all pairs of neighboring combinations in the second CQI table, the spectrum efficiency ratio for the pair of the last combination and the last but one combination and the spectrum efficiency ratio for the pair of the last but two combination and the last but one combination, are higher than the spectrum efficiency ratios for other pairs of combinations; among spectrum efficiency ratios for all pairs of neighboring combinations in the second CQI table, the spectrum efficiency ratio for the pair of the second combination and the first combination and the spectrum efficiency ratio for the pair of the third combination and the second combination, are higher than the spectrum efficiency ratios for other pairs of combinations; when the latest CQI is based on the first CQI table and that CQI has a value indicating an out-of-range state, a current CQI will trigger feedback of another CQI based on the second CQI table; the CQI table further comprises a third CQI table consisting of combinations of modulation scheme and code rate that have lower spectrum efficiency, wherein when the latest CQI is based on the second CQI table and that CQI has a value indicating an out-of-range state, the current CQI will trigger feedback of another CQI based on the third CQI table; the second CQI table comprises two out-of-range states: a state lower than a combination of modulation scheme and code rate associated with the lowest spectrum efficiency, and a state higher than a combination of modulation scheme and code rate associated with the highest spectrum efficiency; any pair of neighboring ones from N1 consecutive combinations of modulation scheme and code rate in the second CQI table has a higher spectrum efficiency ratio than all pairs of neighboring ones from N2 consecutive combinations of modulation scheme and code rate in the first CQI table, where N1 and N2 are each an integer larger than or equal to 2; or each pair of neighboring ones from N3 consecutive combinations of modulation scheme and code rate in the middle of the second CQI table has a lower spectrum efficiency ratio than all pairs of neighboring ones from the first N4 consecutive combinations and the last N5 consecutive combinations in the second CQI table, where N3, N4 and N5 are each an integer larger than or equal to 2.
