The base station includes a frequency hopping determining unit configured to determine whether to apply frequency hopping to the user device based on radio-wave propagation information from the user device and a traffic type of data to be transmitted by the user device; a scheduler configured to allocate frequencies to the user device based on uplink channel reception conditions of the user device; and a reporting unit configured to report allocation information indicating resource units allocated by the scheduler to the user device. When the frequency hopping determining unit determines to apply the frequency hopping to the user device, the scheduler allocates, to the user device, resource units with different frequency bands in different slots. | 07-25-2013 |
20130223413 | MOBILE STATION, BASE STATION, UPLINK TRANSMISSION METHOD, AND DOWNLINK TRANSMISSION METHOD - A mobile station includes a channel quality estimation unit configured to estimate downlink channel quality based on a reference signal from a base station and to output the estimated downlink channel quality as channel estimation information; an acknowledgement information determining unit configured to determine whether a downlink data channel from the base station is correctly received and to output the determination result as acknowledgement information; and an acknowledgement information prioritizing unit configured to cause the acknowledgement information to be preferentially transmitted to the base station if transmission timings of the channel estimation information and the acknowledgement information coincide. | 08-29-2013 |
20140056206 | TRANSMISSION DEVICE AND TRANSMISSION METHOD - A disclosed OFDM-based transmission device includes a unicast channel generating unit configured to generate a unicast channel; an MBMS channel generating unit configured to generate an MBMS channel; a multiplexing unit configured to time-division-multiplex the unicast channel and the MBMS channel in the same frequency band; and a transmitting unit configured to transmit time-division-multiplexed transmission symbols.
