Abstract

A communications system for exchange of information between a base station and a terminal by a multicarrier transmission mode using a plurality of subcarriers. The communication system includes a base station, a transmission data generator configured to generate frequency band information indicating which frequency band is to be used for transmission of data between said communication apparatuses; and a transmitter configured to transmit the frequency band information, using a specific frequency band, set from among a plurality of frequency bands assigned to the communications system, and to transmit data by using at least one frequency band set from among said plurality of frequency bands, and at the time of establishing the wireless channel, the frequency band usable by the communications apparatus is restricted, and said specific frequency band and said at least one frequency band set, other than the specific frequency band, are assigned within that restricted frequency band.

Claims (25)

1. A communications system for exchange of information between a base station and a terminal by a multicarrier transmission mode using a plurality of frequency bands, the communication system comprising:

a base station comprising;

a dedicated transmission data generator configured to generate frequency band information indicating which frequency band is to be used for transmission of dedicated user data information between said the base station and a terminal; and

a transmitter configured to transmit the frequency band information by using a specific frequency band which is set from among a plurality of frequency band assigned to the communications system, and to transmit dedicated user data information by using at least one frequency band set from among said plurality of frequency bands and the specific frequency band, and

at the time of establishing the wireless channel, the frequency band usable by the base station and the terminal is restricted, and said specific frequency band and said at least one frequency band set, other than the specific frequency band, are assigned within that restricted frequency band,

the terminal comprising;

a receiver configured to receive the frequency band information by using the specific frequency band.

2. The communications system as set forth in claim 1 , wherein

frequency band setting information is received from the transmitter for the change of said at least one frequency band, other than the specific frequency band, or said specific frequency band.

3. The communications system as set forth in claim 2 , wherein

change timing information concerning the timing of said change is further received.

4. The communications apparatus as set forth in claim 1 , wherein

at the time of setting a new at least one frequency band, other than the specific frequency band, the change of the frequency band thereof is notified to the receiver in advance.

5. A base station for exchange of information with a terminal in a communications system, the base station comprising:

a dedicated transmission data generator configured to generate frequency band information indicating which frequency band is to be used for transmission of dedicated user data information between the base station and the terminal; and

a transmitter configured to transmit the frequency band information by using a specific frequency band which is set from among a plurality of frequency band assigned to the communications system, and to transmit dedicated user data information by using at least one frequency band set from among said plurality of frequency bands and the specific frequency band.

6. A terminal for exchange of information with a base station in a communications system, the terminal comprising

a receiver configured to receive frequency band information indicating which frequency band is to be used for transmission of dedicated user data information between the terminal and the base station by using a specific frequency band which is set from among a plurality of frequency band assigned to the communications system,

wherein the frequency band information is generated and notified to the terminal by the base station.

7. A communications system for exchange of information between a base station and a terminal by a multicarrier transmission mode using a plurality of frequency bands, the communication system comprising:

a base station comprising;

a dedicated transmission data generator configured to generate frequency band information indicating which frequency band is to be used for transmission of dedicated user data information between said the base station and a terminal; and

a transmitter configured to transmit the frequency band information by using a specific frequency band which is set from among a plurality of frequency band assigned to the communications system, and to transmit dedicated user data information by using at least one frequency band set from among said plurality of frequency bands and the specific frequency band, and at the time of setting a new at least one frequency band, other than the specific frequency band, the change of the frequency band thereof is notified to the receiver in advance,

the terminal comprising:

a receiver configured to receive the frequency band information by using the specific frequency band.
