Abstract

Provided is a communication device, which is enabled to improve the throughput of a communication system by reducing the difference of a transmission power between an SCCH and an SDCH thereby to satisfy the required quality of a PAPR. In this device, an MCS selection unit ( 111 ) of a transmission unit ( 110 ) decides, with reference to a CQI lookup table, an MCS pattern (MCS 1 ) of the SDCH, an MCS pattern (MCS 2 ) of the SCCH and information (multiplex information) on multiplex positions on the time axes of those two channels, on the basis of the CQI information. On the basis of the MCS 2 and the MCS 1 , encoding modulation units ( 112 and 113 ) perform encoding and modulating operations. According to the multiplex information, a channel multiplexing unit ( 114 ) time-division multiplexes the SCCH and the SDCH thereby to generate a transmission signal.
