Abstract

A method for using a mobile user terminal includes a receiving a signal and a measuring downlink channel quality based on the signal; wherein downlink channel quality information and an uplink pilot signal simultaneously is not transmitted at a period which the mobile user terminal is a state of transmission off in an intermittent fashion.

Claims (13)

1. A method for using a mobile user terminal comprising:

receiving a signal; and

measuring downlink channel quality based on the signal;

wherein downlink channel quality information and an uplink pilot signal simultaneously is not transmitted at a period which the mobile user terminal is a state of transmission off in an intermittent fashion.

2. A mobile communication system in which downlink quality information indicating downlink channel quality and an uplink pilot signal are transmitted to a base station, wherein

a carrier frequency used for transmitting said downlink quality information and a carrier frequency used for transmitting said uplink pilot signal are selectable respectively from among a plurality of carrier frequencies assigned to a mobile user terminal, and said mobile user terminal comprises a radio transmitting unit, which transmits said downlink quality information and said uplink pilot signal by using the same carrier frequency among said plurality of carrier frequencies or by using adjacent carrier frequencies among said plurality of carrier frequencies, and

said base station comprises a receiver for receiving said downlink quality information and said uplink pilot signal transmitted using the same carrier frequency among said plurality of carrier frequencies or using adjacent carrier frequencies among said plurality of carrier frequencies by said mobile user terminal.

3. A base station for communicating with a mobile user terminal, the base station comprising:

a transmitter for transmitting a signal to the mobile user station; and

a receiver for receiving a downlink quality information and an uplink pilot signal transmitted using same carrier frequency among a plurality of carrier frequencies or using adjacent carrier frequencies among a plurality of carrier frequencies by said mobile user terminal.

4. A base station for communicating with a mobile user terminal, the base station comprising:

a transmitter for transmitting a signal to the mobile user station; and

a receiver for receiving a downlink quality information and an uplink pilot signal transmitted from the mobile user terminal, wherein transmit time of the downlink quality information and transmit time of the uplink pilot signal are synchronized relative to each other by a mobile user terminal.
