Abstract:
This invention provides a terminal apparatus that can suppress the quality degradation caused by a propagation path variation when implementing a retransmission control method using non-adaptive HARQ in a wireless communication system utilizing the MIMO communication technique. In this apparatus, a number-of-retransmissions counting unit (105) counts a number of retransmission requests (L) for the same code word. A predetermined precoder designating unit (106) changes precoders between when the number of retransmission requests (L) is less than N and when the number of retransmission requests (L) is equal to or greater than N plus one. A PDCCH generation unit (211) determines, based on a result of comparison between the number of retransmission requests (L) for the same CW and the number of retransmission requests (N) established for the change of precoders, a precoder to be used by terminals, and further allocates, based on the determined precoder, resources to the plurality of terminals.

A Walsh sequence number determination unit (108) acquires Walsh sequence numbers used in each cluster according to a bandwidth notification order indicated by a plurality of RIVs, on the basis of associations between the bandwidth notification order indicated by the plurality of RIVs and Walsh sequence numbers used in each cluster. Furthermore, the Walsh sequence number determination unit (108) independently sets the acquired Walsh sequence number to each cluster multiplexed between two different terminals in the same bandwidth.
Abstract:
Provided is a terminal apparatus that can suppress the increase in interference between pilot signals in the same slot, while also suppressing the degradation of the flexibility to design cell cluster structures. When hopping information indicates an inter-slot hopping, a mapping unit (212) arranges a first pilot sequences in which a group to which the sequences used in respective slots belong varies on a slot-by-slot basis. When the hopping information indicates an inter-subframe hopping, the mapping unit (212) arranges a second pilot sequences in which a group to which the sequences used in respective slots belong varies on a subframe-by-subframe basis. The sequence group to which the sequences used in any one of the subframes in the second pilot sequences belong is identical with the sequence group to which the sequence used in any one of the slots included in that one subframe in the first pilot sequences belongs.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a wireless communication method, a wireless communication base station device, and a wireless communication terminal device that dynamically switch the transmission slot of an SRS of each terminal within a cell while suppressing an increase in the number of signaling bits. A terminal (100) and a base station (200) are each provided with a table wherein FH flags for SRS and transmission power data of each slot are mapped to two-bit notification bits. In this table, transmission power data indicating SRS transmission by slot 1 and slot 2 and FH flags are mapped, and an FH flag is not mapped to transmission power data indicating SRS transmission by slot 1 or slot 2. The base station (200) notifies the terminal (100) of the FH flag data and the SRS transmission power data by means of transmitting scheduling data containing the notification bits to the terminal (100).
Abstract:
Disclosed is a base station which can prevent degradation in the reception characteristics of nearby cells when carrier aggregation and channel selection are applied. In accordance with the resistance to interference of a plurality of uplink component carriers of a femtocell, a response protocol controller (101) in a base station (100) changes combination rules for the uplink component carriers and signal points which a terminal (200) in a microcell covered by the base station (100) uses in the feedback of a response signal. Information in relation to the combination rules is notified to the terminal (200). A controller (217) in the terminal (200) changes the combination rules for the uplink component carriers and the signal points of the microcell covered by the base station (100) in accordance with the information notified from the base station (100), and controls transmission of the response signal in accordance with said rules.

In a terminal (200), a PDSCH receiving unit (208) receives first and second code words, which comprise code word block (CWB) groups to be mapped to the respective ones of a plurality of downstream unit bands, and detects errors of the CWBs; and an A/N bundling unit (216) transmits, based on a bundling rule in which each CWB is associated with any one of first and second bundling groups, a single bundle of response signals into which the error detection results are bundled for each bundling group. According to the bundling rule, at least one of the first and second bundling groups includes both the CWB belonging to the first code words and the CWB belonging to the second code words.

Abstract:
Provided are a terminal device and a retransmission control method that make it possible to minimize increases in overhead in an uplink control channel (PUCCH), even if channel selection is used as the method to transmit response signals during carrier-aggregation communication using a plurality of downlink unit bands. On the basis of the generation status of uplink data and error-detection results obtained by a CRC unit (211), a control unit (208) in the provided terminal (200) uses response signal transmission rules to control the transmission of response signals or uplink control signals that indicate the generation of uplink data. If an uplink control signal and a response signal are generated simultaneously within the same transmission time unit, the control unit (208) changes the resources allocated to the response signal and/or the phase point of the response signal in accordance with the number and position of ACKs within the error-detection result pattern.

A terminal apparatus is disclosed wherein even in a case of applying SU-MIMO and MU-MIMO at the same time, the inter-sequence interference in a plurality of pilot signals used by the same terminal can be suppressed to a low value, while the inter-sequence interference in pilot signal between terminals can be reduced. In this terminal apparatus (200): a pilot information deciding unit (204) decides, based on allocation control information, Walsh sequences of the respective ones of first and second stream groups at least one of which includes a plurality of streams; and a pilot signal generating unit (205) forms a transport signal by using the decided Walsh sequences to spread the streams included in the first and second stream groups. During this, Walsh sequences orthogonal to each other are established in the first and second stream groups, and users are allocated on a stream group-by-stream group basis.
