FIELD: radio engineering, communication.
SUBSTANCE: method involves generating a control channel signal containing a transport format and a channel quality indicator trigger for initiating transmission of the channel quality indicator through at least one terminal to a base station, and transmitting the generated control channel signal to at least one terminal; transmitting an aperiodic channel quality information message to the base station without multiplexing the aperiodic channel quality information message with user data, wherein the transport format is predetermined by a format for transmitting user data through at least one terminal to the base station, and the control channel signal indicates a predetermined mode for reporting the channel quality indicator to the base, wherein transmission of the channel quality indicator should be initiated by at least one terminal based on the channel quality indicator trigger signal.
EFFECT: enabling initiation of independent transmission of a channel quality indicator through a terminal without wasting resources.
