Abstract
Provided is a communication apparatus which calculates a CQI indicating reception quality of a reception signal in a receiver and feeds back the CQI to a transmitter, the CQI containing information obtained by averaging SNRs of a plurality of subbands, which are generated by dividing a reception band into a predetermined number, in the reception band, the communication apparatus including a CQI/PMI/RI estimation unit directly uses an initial value in a predetermined approximation method as an approximation calculation result obtained by the predetermined approximation method to thereby simplify the calculation, when the predetermined approximation method is used for calculation in the averaging in place of root calculation and when values of the SNRs are high.
