Abstract:
Provided is a radio communication terminal which is capable of measuring quality in communication with a handover destination with high accuracy. The radio communication terminal is capable of communicating with a base station or a relay node, and includes: a receiver which receives control information including information relating to measurement of measuring quality of a neighbor cell; an extractor which extracts information on a subframe where the measurement should be performed, which is a subframe where only transmission of a signal from the relay node connected to the base station is performed, from the information relating to the measurement; a measurement section which performs the measurement, on a subframe basis, based on the extracted information on the subframe where the measurement should be performed; and a transmitter which transmits a result of the measurement to the base station or the relay node.
Abstract:
To improve throughput by reducing the resource used for transmitting a parameter relating to retransmission control and decreasing overhead of retransmission control signaling. Where a retransmission control method is employed with adaptive MCS control in which the encoding rate can be changed, the scheduling section sets the MCS in accordance with CQI notified from the communication counterpart apparatus. When transmission data is encoded, the RV parameter bit-number setting section sets the number of bits used for signaling the RV parameter to decrease as the encoding rate of the first transmission is decreased and sets the RV parameter based on the number of bits. For example, in a case where the encoding rate R is R>⅔, two bits are set. In a case where the encoding rate ⅓
Abstract:
A base station is disclosed that enables an efficient use of resources even when a TTI length is shortened. In this base station, a PDCCH section (103) generates one piece of downlink control information (DCI) containing control information for a plurality of first transmission time intervals (TTIs) each having a TTI length shorter than a second TTI, and a transmission section (107) transmits the DCI. Control information on retransmission processing for a data signal is configured for each of the plurality of first TTIs while control information other than the control information on the retransmission processing is configured in common among the plurality of first TTIs in the DCI.

A wireless base station transmits first information indicating an allocation policy that determines system performance and second information regarding an allocated bandwidth that is allocated to a wireless terminal in a case where the allocation policy is applied, receives, from each of a plurality of wireless terminals, third information regarding a serving base station candidate and throughput that is achieved in a case where the wireless terminal is connected to the serving base station candidate, and controls, on the basis of the third information, a connection to a wireless terminal having the greatest throughput.
Abstract:
The transmission of a reference signal, such as a CSI-RS, is enabled while maintaining a power saving effect when performing inter-cell cooperative transmission/reception or the like in a plurality of cells. In order to realize inter-cell cooperative transmission/reception, a CSI-RS which is used for estimating the state of a spatial propagation path of a communication line is generated by a CSI-RS generation unit, and the CSI-RS is disposed in a predetermined subframe by a disposition unit and transmitted. At this time, when a frame has ten subframes #0 to #9, the CSI-RS is disposed in the subframes #4 and #9, which are subframes excluding the subframes #0 and #5 incapable of transmitting a CSI-RS and are subframes other than subframes capable of acting as MBSFN subframes when discontinuous communication (Extended Cell DTX) is performed so as to achieve power saving, and transmitted.
Abstract:
Provided are a base station, whereby the erroneous detection of control information can be reduced, thereby preventing the degradation of the system throughput. A base station (100) maps a downstream allocation control information unit, which is addressed to a terminal (200), to a first resource region, which can be used for any of a downstream control channel region and a downstream data channel region, or to a second resource region, which can be used only for the downstream control channel, so as to transmit the downstream allocation control information unit. In the base station (100), a control unit (102) establishes a scale of the PDCCH region, and a transmission region establishing unit (131) establishes, on the basis of a scale value established by the control unit (102), a mapping region to which the DCI is mapped within the R-PDCCH region and the PDCCH region.

Abstract:
To suppress concentration of channel quality information requests and reports in a case of discontinuously transmitting reference signals at specific resources in a time domain, and thereby preventing degradation in throughput. A transmission apparatus transmits an instruction of CSI request distributed for each reception apparatus in a subframe concurrently with or earlier than a reference signal CSI-RS to each of reception apparatuses. Each of the reception apparatuses detects the CSI request from the transmission apparatus and calculates CSI from a channel estimation value of CSI-RS received thereafter. Then, the reception apparatus identifies CSI report subframe of the own apparatus from CSI report interval information of a given time interval notified in advance, the subframe in which the CSI request is detected and transmission timing of CSI-RS, and transmits a feedback signal including CSI report value by using PUSCH at the timing of the CSI report subframe.
