In this example, that adopts the LTE regulation goes up the setting of transmitting the CQI feedback information to PUCCH, promptly; 50 RB of whole frequency band are divided into 9 subbands; 6 RB of each subband except that last subband, last subband comprises 2 RB, and per 3 subbands constitute a feedback frequency range; Each feedback is carried out poll to these 3 feedback frequency ranges respectively, and in the feedback frequency range, finds the maximum subband of 1 CQI value.
Wherein, Subscriber equipment (User Equipment; Abbreviate UE as) main optimum subband position and the CQI value of confirming in the feedback frequency range thereof, confirm the CQI thresholding and except that optimum subband, be lower than the subband position of CQI thresholding; Be lower than the RB position of its CQI average in the optimum subband, and the feedback information that will confirm is as stated above given the base station.Fig. 2 is the flow chart according to the instance of the channel quality index feedback method of the embodiment of the invention, and is as shown in Figure 2, comprises following processing:
The first step, UE (above-mentioned receiver) confirms the frequency range that this feeds back constantly and the frequency range of non-feedback, is example with feedback frequency range 1, and then feeding back frequency range is frequency range subband 1,2,3, and non-feedback frequency range is a subband 4,5,6,7,8,9;
Second step, the average CQI value of 9 subbands of calculating, wherein, subband CQI value is: [4 2356778 9];
The 3rd step, confirm that the maximum CQI value of subband 1 in the feedback frequency range is 4, with and the subband position; Can find out that first to the 3rd step handled corresponding to the first step shown in Fig. 1;
In the 4th step, UE confirms the CQI thresholding on the whole frequency band, and thresholding is that average CQI value subtracts x, (0 < x < CQI thresholding); For example, UE subband average is 6, gets x=2, and then thresholding CQI value is 6-2=4; Confirm that the CQI value is lower than 4 subband position in the non-feedback frequency range, be empty this moment, is not provided with; If the subband CQI value of certain UE is [4 2356712 3], getting thresholding and be the interior CQI value of 3 non-feedback frequency ranges, to be lower than 3 subband position be subband 7,8, and then the CQI value with subband 7,8 places is changed to 0;
The 5th step, ask whole frequency band to be higher than the position of thresholding and the average of the CQI that all are higher than thresholding, the position that is higher than thresholding is a subband 4,5,6,7,8,9, the CQI average that is higher than thresholding is 7;
In the 6th step, if non-optimum subband 2,3 does not belong to the set of the subband position that is higher than thresholding in the feedback frequency range subband 1,2,3, then the CQI value with them is changed to 0, and promptly the CQI value of subband 2,3 is changed to 0;
The 7th step; Confirm to be lower than in the optimum subband RB position of its CQI average 4, the CQI value at each RB place that obtains through system optimization, and then the CQI value of each subband that obtains; The CQI value of the RB position that is lower than its average CQI value in the optimum subband is changed to 0; For example, the CQI value at 6 RB places is respectively in first subband: 433564, and then the CQI value is lower than 4 RB2,3 their CQI value is changed to 0; The the 4th to the 7th step went on foot corresponding to second shown in Fig. 1;
In the 8th step, UE gives base station (corresponding to the 3rd step shown in Fig. 1) with the feedback information that obtains, and the feedback result of this instance is:
1, position and the CQI value 4 thereof of optimum subband (subband 1) in the current feedback frequency range of feedback (go on foot obtain by the 3rd);
2, because for empty, does not then carry out the position that is lower than thresholding in the non-feedback frequency range in this feedback, otherwise the CQI value that will be lower than the thresholding position is changed to 0;
The CQI that 3, will be higher than subband 4,5,6,7,8,9 places of thresholding is changed to 7;
4, if feed back non-optimum subband (subband 2 in the frequency range; 3) do not belong to the set of the subband position that is higher than thresholding; Then the CQI value with them was changed to for 0 (subband 2,3 does not belong to the subband location sets that is higher than thresholding in this example, so the CQI value at subband 2,3 places all is changed to 0);
5, with CQI value in the optimum subband (subband 1) be lower than 4 RB2, the CQI at 3 places is changed to 0;
6, to each subband of non-optimum, the CQI value of its inner each RB all is changed to the CQI value of subband, and this moment, optimum referring to fed back the interior optimum subband of frequency range;
In the 9th step, (corresponding to the 4th step shown in Fig. 1) recovered according to the CQI value that the UE feedack carries out RB in the base station.
Can find out that through above-mentioned processing no matter be that the feedback frequency range also is non-feedback frequency range, the CQI value of each subband all has clear and definite definite method, and they all have been arranged in the reasonable range.The CQI value that is higher than the subband of thresholding is set to the average of the CQI value of all subbands that are higher than thresholding; The CQI value that is lower than the subband place of thresholding then is changed to 0, only need feed back subband position and CQI average that is higher than thresholding when the subband UE that is higher than thresholding is fed back, and only need feed back the subband position that is lower than thresholding for the subband UE that is lower than thresholding; The CQI value of each RB in the optimum subband in the also clear and definite simultaneously feedback frequency range; The CQI that will be lower than the RB of its average is changed to 0, the subband of poor-performing and the CQI value at RB place is changed to 0, therefore; Can avoid the subband and the RB of poor-performing to be scheduled; Because if the Resource Block of poor-performing is scheduled and not only can not improves the throughput of system, make on the contrary quality preferably Resource Block can not bring into play its advantage, reduced the throughput of system.
