A user equipment (UE) receives, from a base station, a message including at least one reporting configuration and resource configuration for a number of channel state information-interference measurement (CSI-IM) resource patterns associated with a first radio access technology (RAT). Each of the configured CSI-IM resource patterns corresponds to a time and frequency location in a resource block of a neighbor cell associated with a second RAT. The UE transmits one or more CSI reports based on the reporting configuration(s) and the resource configuration(s).

Provided are a radio communication terminal apparatus and a radio transmission method by which intersymbol interference of DM-RS of a CoMP terminal and a Non-CoMP terminal can be reduced. A CoMP set setting unit (102) sets the cell IDs of all cells in the CoMP set in a cell selection unit (104), and a serving cell setting unit (103) sets the cell ID of the serving cell in the cell selection unit (104). The cell selection unit (104) selects the cell ID having a number closest to the cell ID of the serving cell from the cells in the CoMP set. A sequence information calculation unit (106) derives a sequence group number from the selected cell ID, and the sequence information calculation unit (106) calculates a sequence number from the derived sequence group number and a transmission bandwidth of the DM-RS.
