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.

Claims (7)

1. A transmitting apparatus for transmitting data and control information in a single carrier system, the apparatus comprising:

a processor configured:

to determine a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) based on information for determining the MCS, the information for determining the MCS being received from a base station;

to calculate a coding rate based on the information for determining the MCS and offset information received from the base station, the coding rate being calculated according to arranged information that defines a relationship among a coding rate portion of the MCS, the offset information, and the coding rate, wherein a value of the offset information is used to adjust the coding rate portion of the MCS; and

a transmitter configured to transmit the data using the MCS and control information using the coding rate.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a total bit length of the offset information is smaller than a total bit length of the information for determining the MCS.

3. The transmitting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the arranged information comprises plural pieces of information stored in memory of the transmitting apparatus.
