Method and apparatus for transmitting channel state information

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for transmitting channel state information of a terminal in a multi-carrier system, and to a terminal using the method. The method comprises the steps of: receiving reference signals from a base station via a plurality of downlink component carriers; measuring a channel state for each of the plurality of downlink component carriers using the reference signals included in the plurality of downlink component carriers; generating channel state information on a portion of the plurality of downlink component carriers; and transmitting to the base station the channel state information on a portion of the plurality of downlink component carriers and/or an index which indicates the portion of the plurality of downlink component carriers.
