Precision measurement of the cross section for single top production is an important test of the Standard Model (SM). The purity of the collected data in single top events is limited by the understanding of the shape and yield of background contributions. Besides electroweak and tt processes, QCD multijet events constitute a non-negligible background for the considered signal bq'→ tq (t-channel) process. The data-driven technique for constraining QCD contribution, employed in the measurement of the t-channel single top-quark cross section using the very first LHC proton-proton collisions at √s=13TeV with the CMS detector, is described. The dataset corresponds to an integrated luminosity of L=42pb⁻¹.
