CDMA mobile communication system and communication method
View Patent ↗A radio communication system having a base station and a plurality of radio terminals, wherein each radio terminal having a transmission request transmits a reservation packet at arbitrary timing through a reservation channel in accordance with a CDMA scheme, and the base station assigns a traffic channel and a time slot to be used to each radio terminal requesting a reservation through a reply packet outputted onto a reply channel. On the reservation channel, a short spreading code corresponding to a matched filter is applied.
1. A system comprising:
a base station; and
a plurality of terminals,
wherein a terminal having a request for data transmission transmits a reservation packet to said base station,
said base station, having received said reservation packet, transmits a reply packet to said terminal which transmitted said reservation packet, said reply packet being processed with a spreading code, and
wherein said base station generates a busy tone signal to control transmission of reservation packets from said plurality of terminals, and transmits said busy tone signal processed with a same spreading code which is used to process said reply packet.
2. A base station in a system comprising said base station, and a plurality of terminals, wherein a terminal having a request for data transmission transmits a reservation packet to said base station, comprising:
a reply packet constructing unit for, in response to receiving said reservation packet from a terminal, transmitting a reply packet to said terminal which transmitted said reservation packet; and
a busy tone value calculator for generating and notifying a busy tone signal to control transmission of reservation packets from said plurality of terminals,
wherein said reply packet and said busy tone signal are processed using a same spreading code.
3. A terminal in a system comprising a base station, and a plurality of terminals, comprising:
a reservation packet constructing unit for, when having a request for data transmission, constructing a reservation packet to be transmitted to said base station;
a busy tone value calculator which receives from a base station a busy tone signal to control transmission of reservation packets;
an upward schedule controller which receives traffic state information from said busy tone value calculator to control issuance of reservation packets; and
means for receiving a reply packet transmitted from said base station in response to said reservation packet,
wherein, at receiving, said busy tone signal and said reply packet are despread using a same spreading code.
4. A wireless communication system comprising a base station and a plurality of terminals each for transmitting data to said base station using one of a plurality of transmission channels for said base station,
wherein a terminal having a request for data transmission transmits a reservation packet to said base station,
wherein said base station, in response to a reception of said reservation packet, transmits a reply packet for said terminal which transmitted said reservation jacket, and
wherein said base station generates a busy tone signal to control transmission of reservation packets from said plurality of terminal based on a condition of said transmission channel, spreads said busy tone signal using a same spreading code as said reply packet, and transmits said busy tone signal in a designated timing of slots of a control channel which is a CDMA channel used for control of said plurality of transmission channels.
5. The wireless communication system according to claim 4 , wherein said plurality of transmission channels and a channel used to transmit said reservation packet are CDMA channels.
6. A base station in a wireless communication system comprising a base station and a plurality of terminals each for transmitting data to said base station using one of a plurality of transmission channels for said base station, comprising:
a reply packet generator which generates a reply packet in response to reception of a reservation packet from a terminal, and transmits said reply packet for said terminal; and
a busy tone value calculator which generates and notifies a busy tone signal to control transmission of reservation packets from said plurality of terminal, based on a condition of said transmission channel,
wherein said reply packet and said busy tone signal are spread using a same spreading code, and transmitted using designated timings in slots on a CDMA control channel used for control of said plurality of transmission channels.
7. The base station according to claim 6 , wherein said plurality of transmission channels and a channel used to transmit said reservation packet are CDMA channels.
8. A terminal in a wireless communication system comprising a base station and a plurality of terminals each for transmitting data to said base station using one of a plurality of transmission channels for said base station, comprising:
a reservation packet generator which generates a reservation packet when there is data to be transmitted;
a uplink schedule controller which controls transmission of said reservation packet according to a busy tone signal received from said base station, which is used to control said transmission of reservation packets based on a condition of said plurality of transmission channels; and
a reception unit which receives a reply packet transmitted from said base station in response to said reservation packet,
wherein said reception unit despreads said busy tone signal and said reply packet using a same spreading code, and said busy tone signal and said reply packet axe received at timings in slots on a CDMA control channel used for control of said plurality of transmission channels.
9. The terminal according to claim 8 , wherein said plurality of transmission channels and a channel used to transmit said reservation packet are CDMA channels.
