Abstract
A method and an apparatus for feeding back channel information in a wireless communication system are provided. The method includes calculating an average Signal to Interference and Noise Ratio (SINR), determining a Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) level corresponding to the average SINR, determining an MCS level meeting a predefined condition among MCS levels equal to or less than the determined MCS level, and reporting a channel quality indicator representing the determined MCS level to a base station.
