Abstract  Abstract

In an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing communication system a user equipment reports channel quality information that is sufficient to construct a fading profile of a frequency bandwidth and that does not consuming the overhead resulting from the reporting of CQI for every sub-band of the frequency bandwidth. In the communication system the frequency bandwidth may be represented by multiple sub-band levels wherein each sub-band level comprises a division of the frequency bandwidth into a number of sub-bands different from the number of sub-bands of the other sub-band levels. The user equipment measures a channel quality associated with each sub-band of a sub-band level of the multiple sub-band levels selects a sub-band of the sub-band level based on the measured channel qualities and reports channel quality information associated with the selected sub-band to a radio access network.
