Radio transmission apparatus and radio reception apparatus in a CDMA communication system
View Patent ↗Reception section 602 receives a signal on which signals of channels are multiplexed in a same frequency band through antenna 601 . Separation section 603 separates a part used for correlation value calculation in the reception signal. Correlation sections 604 and 605 create delay profiles by calculating a correlation value using a 1st basic code and 2nd basic code for the signals after the separation, respectively. Comparison/channel estimation section 606 cycles each delay profile so that the delay profiles match in a section in which the path of the channel to be detected appears when there is no propagation delay and detects a quasi-matching path in each delay profile after the cycling.
1. A midamble pattern assigning method for assigning a plurality of midamble patterns to a plurality of CDMA radio transmission apparatuses, the method comprising:
while a first CDMA radio transmission apparatus and a second CDMA radio transmission apparatus are engaged in communication, (i) at a first time unit, assigning a first midamble pattern to the first CDMA radio transmission apparatus and a second midamble pattern, which is different from the first midamble pattern, to the second CDMA radio transmission apparatus, and (ii) at a second time unit subsequent to the first time unit, assigning the first midamble pattern to the second CDMA radio transmission apparatus and the second midamble pattern to the first CDMA radio transmission apparatus, wherein:
step (i) and step (ii) are periodically repeated at a regular interval.
2. The midamble pattern assigning method according to claim 1 , wherein the first midamble pattern and the second midamble pattern have a pattern length that is shorter than the first time unit and the second time unit.
3. The midamble pattern assigning method according to claim 1 , wherein the first midamble pattern and the second midamble pattern are placed in a predetermined part of the first time unit and the second time unit.
4. The midamble pattern assigning method according to claim 1 , wherein the first time unit and the second time unit have a length of one frame.
5. A midamble pattern assigning method for assigning a plurality of midamble patterns to a plurality of CDMA radio transmission apparatuses, the method comprising:
while a first CDMA radio transmission apparatus and a second CDMA radio transmission apparatus are engaged in communication, (i) to the first CDMA radio transmission apparatus, assigning a first midamble pattern at a first time unit and a second midamble pattern, which is different from the first midamble pattern, at a second time unit subsequent to the first time unit, and (ii) to the second CDMA radio transmission apparatus, assigning the second midamble pattern at the first time unit and the first midamble pattern at the second time unit, wherein:
step (i) and step (ii) are repeated in parallel periodically at a regular interval.
6. The midamble pattern assigning method according to claim 5 , wherein the first midamble pattern and the second midamble pattern have a pattern length that is shorter than the first time unit and the second time unit.
7. The midamble pattern assigning method according to claim 5 , wherein the first midamble pattern and the second midamble pattern are placed in a predetermined part of the first time unit and the second time unit.
8. The midamble pattern assigning method according to claim 5 , wherein the first time unit and the second time unit have a length of one frame.
