Abstract

A radio transmitting apparatus wherein when both a first data and a second data, which has a greater importance than the first data, are placed in a single block, the BER characteristic of the second data can be well maintained. In this apparatus, a modulating part ( 101 - 1 ) modulates a first data sequence to generate a first data symbol, while a modulating part ( 101 - 2 ) modulates a second data sequence to generate a second data symbol. A placing part ( 102 ) places both the first data symbol and the second data sequence in each of blocks constituting a single carrier signal. At this moment, the placing part ( 102 ) places, in the single block, the first data at both ends of the block, while placing the second data, which has the greater importance than the first data, at the center of the block. A CP adding part ( 103 ) adds, to the head of the block in which the first and second data symbols are placed, a rear end portion of that block as CP.

Claims (26)

1. A radio transmission apparatus comprising:

a mapping section that maps first data of a data channel in a block, and maps second data of a control channel in a central part of the block;

an attaching section that attaches to a head of the block, in which the first data and the second data are mapped, a tail end part of the block as a cyclic prefix;

a transmission section that transmits the block with the cyclic prefix as a single carrier signal; and

a repetition section that generates third data, that is the same as the second data, by duplicating the second data,

wherein the mapping section maps the third data in central parts of a plurality of blocks that are not adjacent to each other.

2. The radio transmission apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein each of the blocks has a length that corresponds to a frequency domain equalization range.

3. A radio transmission apparatus comprising:

a mapping section that maps first data comprising parity bits in a block, and maps second data comprising systematic bits in a central part of the block;

an attaching section that attaches to a head of the block, in which the first data and the second data are mapped, a tail end part of the block as a cyclic prefix;

a transmission section that transmits the block with the cyclic prefix as a single carrier signal; and

a repetition section that generates third data, that is the same as the second data, by duplicating the second data,

wherein the mapping section maps the third data in central parts of a plurality of blocks that are not adjacent to each other.

4. The radio transmission apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein each of the blocks has a length that corresponds to a frequency domain equalization range.

5. A transmission method performed by a radio transmission apparatus, the method comprising:

mapping first data of a data channel in a block, and second data of a control channel in a central part of the block;

attaching to a head of the block, in which the first data and the second data are mapped, a tail end part of the block as a cyclic prefix;

transmitting the block with the cyclic prefix as a single carrier signal; and

generating third data, that is the same as the second data, by duplicating the second data,

wherein the third data is mapped in central parts of a plurality of blocks that are not adjacent to each other.

6. A transmission method performed by a radio transmission apparatus, comprising:

mapping first data comprising parity bits in a block, and second data comprising systematic bits in a central part of the block;

attaching to a head of the block, in which the first data and the second data are mapped, a tail end part of the block as a cyclic prefix;

transmitting the block with the cyclic prefix as a single carrier signal; and

generating third data, that is the same as the second data, by duplicating the second data,

wherein the third data is mapped in central parts of a plurality of blocks that are not adjacent to each other.
