The invention provides a CQI information receiving method, transmitting method, receiving device, and transmitting device. The CQI information receiving method includes sending high-level configuration signaling to a terminal; and receiving the CQI information from the terminal, wherein the CQI information is determined based on a CQI form which is obtained based on the high-level configuration signaling. According to the invention, the problem that the high data transmission reliability, low data transmission rate, and low system spectral efficiency cannot satisfy the coverage of the enhanced MTC terminal in the prior art is solved, and the effects of high data transmission reliability, low data transmission rate, and low system spectral efficiency required by the coverage of the enhanced MTC terminal can be achieved.
