Abstract
[Task] In the communication between the base station device and the communication terminal device, promptly determine the appropriate radio resource allocation and communication method for communication.
Solution.The complex correlation unit 110 complexly multiplies a baseband signal in which a known signal transmitted from a base station device that is a candidate for a communication partner is frequency-converted to a baseband frequency by a known pattern that distinguishes the signal of each base station device. Reverse diffusion is performed to obtain the amplitude value. The desired wave power measuring unit 111 averages the amplitude value with a predetermined number of symbols, suppresses the interference component, and calculates the desired wave power value. The interference wave power measuring unit 112 calculates the desired wave power value from the amplitude value. The interference wave component is separated by subtraction. The division unit 113 divides the desired wave by the interference wave to calculate the CIR value, and outputs the CIR value to the transmission units 102-1 to 102-n. The transmission units 102-1 to 102-n perform processing necessary for wireless transmission such as modulation, coding, and frequency conversion of the CIR value, and transmit the CIR value via the antenna 103.

As described above, according to the communication terminal device and the base station device of the present embodiment, the base station device indicates a parameter (for example, averaging time) related to averaging of received quality information, and the communication terminal device is a communication terminal device. By calculating the average value of reception quality information according to the instructions from the base station equipment, when there is a possibility of communicating with multiple base station equipment in different propagation path environments, a known signal corresponding to the propagation path environment It is possible to average the reception quality information of the above, and in the communication between the base station device and the communication terminal device, it is possible to promptly determine an appropriate radio resource allocation and communication method for communication.
【0072】
For example, when a base station communicates with communication terminal devices having different moving speeds, the averaging time required to determine an appropriate radio resource allocation and communication method in averaging reception quality information of known signals. Although different, the averaging time of the reception quality information of the known signal can be set for each communication terminal device by transmitting an appropriate averaging time for each communication terminal device.
【0073】
The communication terminal device of the present invention measures the CIR value of a known signal and transmits it to the base station device, and the base station device determines the radio resource allocation and the communication method from this CIR value. Not limited to this, any information indicating the reception quality of a known signal may be used. For example, it may be a SIR (Signal to Interference Ration) value or the like. In the above, the CIR is averaged, but the present invention can be used even if the CIR is not averaged, as long as it is a method using the past CIR.
【0074】
The radio resource allocation and communication method determined by the base station device from the reception quality information of the known signal is not limited to the modulation method of the signal to be transmitted, the coding rate, the diffusion rate in CDMA communication, and the number of multicodes. Any communication method that can determine is sufficient.
【0075】
Further, in the base station apparatus of the present invention, the radio resource and the transmission rate are allocated by predicting the change in the reception quality on the mobile station side from the difference between the received reception quality information and the reception quality information received immediately before. You can also do it. It is also possible to predict the tendency of changes in reception quality using a plurality of reception quality information and allocate radio resources and transmission rates.
【0076】
Further, in the mobile station apparatus of the present invention, reception quality information is accumulated, the difference between the current reception quality information and the previous reception quality information is obtained, and the information is transmitted to the base station apparatus. The base station device can also predict changes in reception quality from the difference in reception quality information sent from the mobile station device and allocate radio resources and transmission rates. Further, the base station apparatus can also use a plurality of reception quality information to predict the reception quality on the mobile station side, predict the tendency of the change in reception quality, and allocate the radio resource and the transmission rate.

[Effect of the invention]
As described above, according to the communication terminal device, the base station device, and the communication method of the present invention, the known signal transmitted from the plurality of base station devices is received, and the known signal is sent to each base station device that has transmitted the known signal. When the communication terminal device changes the base station device that is actually the communication partner by transmitting the reception quality information of the above, the base station device promptly determines an appropriate radio resource allocation and transmission rate. It can communicate with the communication terminal device.
