Base station apparatus and radio transmission method
View Patent ↗A base station transmits downlink signals to mobile terminals of users A to C with respective transmission power corresponding to downlink quality. A downlink quality estimating section ( 106 ) uses the transmission power from a transmission power control section to compare transmission power between the users, and estimates that a terminal with low transmission power has high downlink quality. The priorities are determined so that the priority is increased as the transmission power is lower. Thus determined priority information is output to a scheduling section ( 107 ). The scheduling section ( 107 ) performs scheduling based on the priority information. The section ( 107 ) assigns DSCH to terminals in ascending order of transmission power. User A is first assigned DSCH, user B is second assigned DSCH, and user C is third assigned DSCH. It is thus possible to perform scheduling and MCS selection of DSCH with the need of information from a terminal eliminated.
1. A base station apparatus comprising:
a selection section that selects a coding rate and a modulation scheme of a DSCH (downlink shared channel) based on transmission power of a downlink DPCH (dedicated physical channel) associated with the DSCH.
2. The base station apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a coding section that codes a signal using the coding rate selected by said selection section; and
a modulation section that modulates the signal using the modulation scheme selected by said selection section.
3. The base station apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a transmission section that transmits the signal coded by said coding section and modulated by said modulation section DSCH.
4. The base station apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein the DSCH is shared by a plurality of communication terminals and the downlink DPCH is for each of the plurality of communication terminals.
5. A communication system comprising:
a base station; and
a communication terminal,
wherein the base station selects a coding rate and a modulation scheme of a DSCH (downlink shared channel) based on transmission power of a downlink DPCH (dedicated physical channel) associated with the DSCH, and
wherein the communication terminal receives a signal, which is coded using the coding rate selected by the base station and modulated using the modulation scheme selected by the base station, on the DSCH.
6. A radio transmission method in a base station, comprising:
selecting a coding rate and a modulation scheme of a DSCH (downlink shared channel) based on transmission power of a downlink DPCH (dedicated physical channel) associated with the downlink DSCH.
