Wireless communication system
View Patent ↗A wireless communication method used by a wireless communication apparatus is disclosed. The wireless communication method transmits and receives control information divided into a second control information containing information related to the demodulation and decoding of traffic channel and a first control information containing information related to the MIMO separation of the second control information.
1. A wireless communication system, comprising:
a base station and a mobile terminal,
wherein the base station includes,
a transmission unit that transmits, to the mobile terminal, first control information including control information regarding Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO), second control information to which first transmission processing in accordance with a content of the first control information regarding MIMO is applied at the base station, and data to which second transmission processing in accordance with the first control information and the second control information is applied at the base station, and
wherein the mobile terminal includes,
a receiving unit that receives the first control information, the second control information, and the data transmitted from the base station,
wherein the content of the first control information specifies whether MIMO mode is to be applied or not and information related to MIMO separation of the second control information, and the second control information includes Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (Hybrid-ARQ) process information, redundancy and constellation version information, and transport block size information,
wherein a transmission rate of the second control information is variable.
