Radio base station apparatus, radio terminal apparatus, mobile communication system, and reception operation control program
View Patent ↗In response to a connection request from a terminal, a base station provides a signal indicating a reception operation adapted to a transmission operation of the base station to the terminal. Based on the indicating signal, the terminal selects and performs the optimum reception operation. The terminal also provides its own reception operation information in advance to the base station. Based on the reception operation information, the base station transmits a reception operation indication to the terminal. These processes are realized with software by DSP ( 12, 14 ) and the like.
1. A communication method comprising:
receiving a connection request from a radio terminal apparatus; and
transmitting a multiple-field frame to the radio terminal apparatus which has sent the connection request wherein control information and first data are respectively contained in mutually different fields in the multiple-field frame, and the control information contains (1) a single bit indicating a reception operation adapted to a transmission operation of a radio base station apparatus and (2) second data for communication control.
2. A communication method according to claim 1 , wherein the single bit has a first value specifying a first reception operation or a second value specifying a second reception operation, the single bit instructing the radio terminal apparatus to accept the multiple-field frame only in a prescribed manner determined by the first or second value and adapted to a corresponding transmission operation of the radio base station apparatus.
3. A communication method according to claim 1 , wherein the receiving step includes receiving the connection request by a plurality of antennas, and the transmitting step includes transmitting the multiple-field frame by the plurality of antennas.
