Base station, mobile station, and mapping method of subcarriers

1. A mapping method of mapping subcarriers in a base station, comprising:

identifying a condition of a communication environment between the base station and a single mobile station on the basis of channel quality information transmitted from the mobile station within a plurality of resource blocks assigned to the mobile station composed of a predetermined number of subcarriers in a predetermined communication band;

judging whether or not the condition of the communication environment is good within the resource blocks assigned to the mobile station in comparison with a predetermined criterion to determine a good resource block, if the good resource block is present within the plurality of the resource blocks assigned to the mobile station;

preferentially mapping a specific control signal, of a plurality of control signals used for control of communication, selectively to a specified subcarrier within the good resource block, if the good resource block is present within the plurality of the resource blocks assigned to the mobile station, wherein an importance of the specific control signal is different from an importance of other control signals of the plurality of control signals; and

mapping the plurality of control signals onto subcarriers within the predetermined communication band in a predetermined order of frequencies, if the good resource block is not present within the plurality of the resource blocks assigned for the mobile station.

2. The mapping method of mapping subcarriers as recited in claim 1 , wherein:

the criterion for the base station is whether or not the channel quality information to be identified is higher than a sum of an average of channel quality information of the communication bands assigned to the mobile station and a predetermined threshold.

3. The mapping method of mapping subcarriers as recited in claim 1 , wherein the condition of the communication environment is determined by the channel quality information transmitted from the mobile station at every one of the plurality of resource blocks assigned to the mobile station.

4. The mapping method of mapping subcarriers as recited in claim 3 , wherein the channel quality information is a channel quality indicator sent from the mobile station at every one of the plurality of resource blocks assigned to the mobile station.

5. The mapping method of mapping subcarriers as recited in claim 1 , wherein the specific control signal includes a systematic bit.

6. A base station comprising:

a unit to identify a condition of a communication environment between the base station and a single mobile station on the basis of channel quality information transmitted from the mobile station within a plurality of resource blocks assigned to the mobile station composed of a predetermined number of subcarriers in a predetermined communication band;

a unit to judge whether or not the condition of the communication environment is good within the resource blocks assigned to the mobile station in comparison with a predetermined criterion to determine a good resource block, if the good resource block is present within the plurality of the resource blocks assigned to the mobile station; and

a unit to preferentially map a specific control signal, of a plurality of control signals used for control of communication, selectively to a specified subcarrier within the good resource block, if the good resource block is present within the plurality of the resource blocks assigned to the mobile station and to map the plurality of control signals onto subcarriers within the predetermined communication band in a predetermined order of frequencies, if the good resource block is not present within the plurality of the resource blocks assigned to the mobile station;

wherein an importance of the specific control signal is different from an importance of other control signals of the plurality of control signals.

7. The base station as recited in claim 6 , wherein the condition of the communication environment is determined by the channel quality information transmitted from the mobile station at every one of the plurality of resource blocks assigned to the mobile station.

8. The base station as recited in claim 6 , wherein the channel quality information is a channel quality indicator sent from the mobile station at every one of the plurality of resource blocks assigned to the mobile station.

9. The base station as recited in claim 6 , wherein the specific control signal includes a systematic bit.

10. A mobile station comprising:

a unit to acquire channel quality information which is indicative of a communication environment between a base station and the mobile station and which is acquired at every one of resource blocks assigned to the mobile station within a predetermined communication band;

a unit to monitor the resource blocks sent from the base station to detect a specific one of the plurality of resource blocks assigned to the mobile station with reference to the channel quality information;

a unit to preferentially identify a specific control signal, of a plurality of control signals, which is received through the specific one of the plurality of resource blocks assigned to the mobile station from the base station on the basis of a result of detecting the specific one of the plurality of resource blocks assigned to the mobile station, when the specific one of the plurality of resource blocks assigned to the mobile station is found out;

wherein an importance of the specific control signal is different from an importance of other control signals of the plurality of control signals.

11. The mobile station as recited in claim 10 , wherein:

when the control signal is mapped on the specific one of the plurality of resource blocks assigned to the mobile station, the control signal is determined by searching for subcarriers included in the specific one of the plurality of resource blocks assigned to the mobile station.
