This application relates to a method for acquiring a CQI, a user equipment, an eNB and a system. The method includes: calculating CQIs of at least two subbands, where there is an overlapped resource block between the subbands; and transmitting the subband CQIs to an eNB. In the method for acquiring a channel quality indicator, the user equipment, the evolved node B and the system of the present application, there is an overlapped resource block between adjacent subbands, and meanwhile the channel quality of the resource block of the subband is obtained by using different subbands, thus the feedback accuracy of the channel quality of the resource block of each subband, especially the channel quality of the resource block in the subband overlapping area, thereby improving the granularity of frequency-selective scheduling, and improving the frequency-selective scheduling and the link adaptation, and therefore, the system throughput is increased.
