Terminal and radio communication method using multiple waveforms

A radio communication method for a terminal, comprising:

• providing capabilities for transmitting a first waveform and a second waveform while switching therebetween, wherein the first waveform is based on a first transmission scheme and the second waveform is based on a second transmission scheme;
• transmitting, at a timing, a signal using the first waveform using a cell;
• and
• calculating a power headroom for the second waveform that is not used to transmit at the timing,
• wherein when discrete bandwidths are allocated to the first waveform, calculating the power headroom for the first waveform is based on a sum of the discrete bandwidths.

A base station comprising:

• a receiver that receives a signal, transmitted at a timing using a first waveform using a cell, from a terminal that is capable of transmitting the first waveform and a second waveform while switching therebetween,
• wherein the first waveform is based on a first transmission scheme and the second waveform is based on a second transmission scheme;
• and
• a processor that controls to receive a power headroom for the first waveform and/or the power headroom for the second waveform,
• wherein, when discrete bandwidths are allocated to the first waveform that is used to transmit at the timing, the processor controls to receive the power headroom for the first waveform and/or the power headroom for the second waveform, calculated based on a sum of the discrete bandwidths.

A system comprising a terminal and a base station, wherein:
