A user terminal in a radio communication system, in which each of user terminals performs multiplexing of a data signal and a pilot signal and transmits the multiplexed signal to a base station using different data transmission band frequencies that are assigned by the base station, the user terminal includes a receiving unit that receives uplink resource information from a base station. A pilot generation unit that generates a pilot signal based on the uplink resource information and a transmitting unit that transmits the pilot signal generated by the pilot generation unit to the base station where the pilot generation unit includes a sequence generation unit that generates a Zadoff-Chu sequence as a pilot signal based on the uplink resource information and a subcarrier mapping unit that performs mapping of a sequence generated by cyclically copying the Zadoff-Chu sequence.
