Abstract

A mobile communication system in which a mobile station apparatus transmits, to a base station apparatus, uplink data using a physical uplink shared channel assigned by an uplink data transmission permission signal, wherein the base station apparatus: transmits, to the mobile station apparatus, a radio resource control signal including information for specifying a physical format in transmitting reception quality information together with uplink data; and transmits, to the mobile station apparatus, the uplink data transmission permission signal including a transmission instruction of reception quality information, and wherein the mobile station apparatus transmits, to the base station apparatus, reception quality information together with uplink data using the physical uplink shared channel according to information for specifying the physical format in case that a transmission instruction of the reception quality information is included in the uplink data transmission permission signal.

Claims

1. A base station apparatus which schedules, to a mobile station apparatus, a physical uplink shared channel by using a physical downlink control channel, the physical uplink shared channel is used for transmitting uplink data, the base station apparatus comprising:

a transmitting unit configured to transmit on the physical downlink control channel, to the mobile station apparatus, information instructing the mobile station apparatus to transmit reception quality information; and

a receiving unit configured to receive, from the mobile station apparatus, the reception quality information together with the uplink data on the physical uplink shared channel scheduled by using the physical downlink control channel in case that the information was transmitted on the physical downlink control channel to the mobile station apparatus, wherein

amount of resources for the reception quality information is determined based on a size of the physical uplink shared channel scheduled by using the physical downlink control channel.

2. The base station apparatus according to claim 1, wherein

the reception quality information transmitted together with the uplink data on the physical uplink shared channel is coded independently of the uplink data.

3. A communication method of a base station apparatus which schedules, to a mobile station apparatus, a physical uplink shared channel by using a physical downlink control channel, the physical uplink shared channel is used for transmitting uplink data, the communication method comprising:

transmitting on the physical downlink control channel, to the mobile station apparatus, information instructing the mobile station apparatus to transmit reception quality information; and

receiving, from the mobile station apparatus, the reception quality information together with the uplink data on the physical uplink shared channel scheduled by using the physical downlink control channel in case that the information was transmitted on the physical downlink control channel to the mobile station apparatus, wherein

amount of resources for the reception quality information is determined based on a size of the physical uplink shared channel scheduled by using the physical downlink control channel.

4. The communication method according to claim 3, wherein

the reception quality information transmitted together with the uplink data on the physical uplink shared channel is coded independently of the uplink data.
