Abstract

In an information transmission method, a radio communications system, a base station and a mobile station, a TBS size, a modulation scheme and the number of codes in a multicode are converted into identification data having a relatively smaller data size before being transmitted to a destination of communication. The TBS size is identified by using, in combination, an identification code identifying a channelization code set, an identification code identifying a modulation scheme, and an identification code obtained by converting a combination of the number of codes in a multicode and a modulation pattern identification (TFRC) into a corresponding code. Accordingly, the data size for TBS size identification is reduced.

Claims (13)

1. An information communication method for performing code division multiple access communication between a base station and mobile stations using a plurality of channelization codes, comprising the steps of:

transmitting, from the base station, the number of the channelization codes assigned to a mobile station, a modulation scheme for use in the code division multiple access, and an identification code corresponding to a transport block set size; and

identifying, in the mobile station, the transport block set size based on the number of the channelization codes, the modulation scheme for use in the code division multiple access, and the identification code corresponding to the transport block set size, which are transmitted.

2. The information communication method according to claim 1 , wherein the number of types of the transport block set size to be identified is over the number of types of the transport block set size which can be identified using the identification code corresponding to the transport block set size only.

3. The information communication method according to claim 1 or claim 2 , further comprising attaching CRC for each predetermined data amount of information data to be transmitted from the base station to the mobile station,

wherein the transport block set size is the size of the predetermined data amount.

4. An information communication system configured to perform code division multiplex access communication between a base station and a plurality of mobile stations using a plurality of channelization codes, comprising:

a base station configured to transmit a number of the channelization codes assigned to a mobile station, a modulation scheme for use in the code division multiplex access, and an identification code corresponding to a transport block set size; and

a mobile station configured to receive the number of the channelization codes, the modulation scheme for use in the code division multiplex access, and the identification code corresponding to the transport block set size transmitted from the base station, and to identify the transport block set size based on the number of the channelization codes, the modulation scheme for use in the code division multiplex access, and the identification code corresponding to the transport block set size received.

5. The information communication system according to claim 4 , wherein the number of types of the transport block set size to be identified is larger the number of types of the transport block set size which can be identified using the identification code corresponding to the transport block set size only.

6. The information communication system according to claim 4 or claim 5 , wherein the base station further comprises:

an adder configured to attach CRC for each predetermined data amount of information data to be transmitted to the mobile station, wherein

the transport block set size is the size of the predetermined data amount.
