Communication terminal apparatus, base station apparatus and reception quality reporting method
View Patent ↗A communication terminal apparatus that can eliminate the waste of reception quality report, suppress the interference of an upstream network, perform an optimum assignment using a scheduling, prevent the loss of resources, and ensure the fairness of transmission assignment using the scheduling. In this apparatus, a reception quality determining part ( 110 ) uses a pilot signal, which is included in a received signal, to determine the reception quality for each of subcarrier blocks. A CQI generating part ( 111 ) generates CQIs each of which is the information indicative of a result of the determination by the reception quality determining part ( 110 ). A sorting part ( 112 ) sorts the CQIs in descending or ascending order of the reception quality. A control part ( 113 ) instructs, based on information about the number of subcarrier blocks in which the CQIs have been transmitted, collision information and scheduling information, the sorting part ( 112 ) with respect to the number of subcarrier blocks in which the CQIs are outputted.
1. A communication terminal apparatus comprising:
a reporting unit that is configured to report a channel quality indicator (CQI) to a base station;
a counting unit that is configured to count a number of times the reporting unit has reported the CQI;
a receiving unit that is configured to receive allocation information from the base station;
an accumulating unit that is configured to accumulate a number of subcarrier blocks that have been allocated to the communication terminal by the base station;
a calculating unit that is configured to calculate a cumulative allocation rate based on the counted number of times and the accumulated number of subcarrier blocks; and
a controlling unit that is configured to increase a number of subcarrier blocks for which the CQI is to be reported when the calculated cumulative allocation rate is lower than a threshold, and to decrease the number of subcarrier blocks for which the CQI is to be reported when the calculated cumulative allocation rate is higher than the threshold.
2. A communication method comprising:
reporting a channel quality indicator (CQI) to a base station;
counting a number of times the CQI has been reported;
receiving allocation information from the base station;
accumulating a number of subcarrier blocks that have been allocated to the communication terminal by the base station;
calculating a cumulative allocation rate based on the counted number of times and the accumulated number of subcarrier blocks; and
controlling a number of subcarrier blocks far which the CQI is to be reported, by increasing the number of subcarrier blocks for which the CQI is to be reported when the calculated cumulative allocation rate is lower than a threshold, and by decreasing the number of subcarrier blocks for which the CQI is to be reported when the calculated cumulative allocation rate is higher than the threshold.
