Information transmission method, mobile communications system, base station and mobile station in which data size of identification data is reduced
View Patent ↗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.
1. An information communication method for a mobile station based on code division multiple access for performing communication using a plurality of channelization codes and a transport block set size identified by identification codes, the information communication method comprising the steps of:
receiving, at a mobile station,
a first identification code for indicating the number of codes in a multicode, wherein the number of codes in multicode indicates the number of the channelization codes assigned to a mobile station,
a second identification code for indicating a modulation scheme used in the code division multiple access, and
a third identification code used in the mobile station for identifying the transport block set size,
wherein, the transport block set size is identified from a predetermined relationship linking the transport block set size, the first identification code, the second identification code and the third identification code,
wherein the number of bits of the third identification code to identify the transport block set size is less than a required number of bits in the case where the transport block set size is identified without said relationship with the first identification code and second identification code; and
further identifying the number of the channelization codes based on the first identification code, and the modulation scheme based on the second identification code.
