Abstract

A communication mode determination section 201 determines the communication mode based on the CIR measured by a CIR measurement section 219 ; a DRC signal creation section 202 creates a DRC signal with a number corresponding to the communication mode; and a DRC power controller 205 refers to a transmission power table 206 showing the correspondence between DRC numbers and transmission power, and, based on the transmission power of the pilot signal output from a pilot power controller 209 , increases transmission power in proportion as the DRC signal indicates that downlink channel quality is good.

Claims (19)

1. A communication terminal apparatus comprising:

a measuring device that measures downlink channel quality; and

a transmitter that transmits a notification signal to notify a base station apparatus of information generated based on said measured downlink channel quality, wherein:

the information of the notification signal, prior to its transmission, is converted to a code word whose code-word minimum distance is proportional to the degree of measured downlink channel quality.

2. A communication terminal apparatus, comprising:

a measuring device that measures downlink channel quality;

a transmitter that transmits a notification signal to notify a base station apparatus of information generated based on said measured downlink channel quality;

a table that indicates a correspondence between the notification signal and a code word; and

a rewriting device that rewrites contents of said table in accordance with a control signal from the base station apparatus, wherein:

the transmitter converts the notification signal, prior to its transmission, to a code word based on the contents of said table.

3. A communication terminal apparatus comprising:

a measuring device that measures downlink channel quality; and

a transmitter that transmits a notification signal to notify a base station apparatus of information generated based on said measured downlink channel quality, wherein:

each of a plurality of digits representing the information of the notification signal is converted, prior to its transmission, to a code word whose code length is proportional to the digit's degree of significance.

4. A communication terminal apparatus comprising:

a measuring device that measures reception quality of a pilot signal to output information having a plurality of bits that indicate the measured reception quality;

a coding device that encodes the information to obtain a code word; and

a transmitter that transmits the code word, wherein:

the coding device encodes the information such that the most significant bit of the plurality of bits is less susceptible to errors in a propagation path than other bits of the plurality of bits.
