A terminal device is equipped with: a sequence determination unit that determines a sequence number with a different pattern than the assignment pattern for the sequence number assigned to the cell in which the host device resides; a reference signal generation unit that generates a reference signal for a sequence group corresponding to the sequence number that has been determined; and a wireless transmission unit that transmits the reference signal that has been generated to a base station. The sequence determination unit employs a configuration whereby, with the sequence number assigned to the cell in which the host device resides as a cell-specific sequence number, a dynamic offset which periodically changes over time and for which the same value is not consecutive is added to the cell-specific sequence number, thereby determining a sequence number which never overlaps with the cell-specific sequence number.
