And the terminal transmits the CQI information processed by the identification code on the allocated partial resource in the CQI time-frequency resource. When receiving, the base station distinguishes the users through the identification codes and the positions of the time frequency resources occupied by the users, receives the CQI information of the corresponding users on different sub-resources in the time frequency resources, and distinguishes the user information through the identification codes and the positions, so that more users can be supported to send the CQI information at the same time.
