Specific embodiment
First of all for understanding that the present invention is explained with reference to above-mentioned prior art (patent documentation 1~4) as early as possible.
Figure 34 is the figure of the main points representing the prior art disclosed in patent documentation 1.This legend is as represented to 7 user U1 Frequency distribution (epimere) of~U7, hypomere represent the distribution of a series of subcarrier carrying out for user U1 and U2 in detail.Horizontal Axle is frequency.
The system is characterised by, multiple carrier waves are continuously configured on the frequency band that sending side is distributed, according to (U1~U7) is split multiple subcarriers to be carried out continuously configuration at family.
Specifically, being for example located at the whole frequency band can use in 1 communication system is 20MHz, and setting it has 250 Subcarrier.A width of 20 [the MHz]/250=80 [kHz] of band of therefore each subcarrier.And between multiple users (U1~U7) This 250 subcarriers of dynamically distributes are used.
Now, be for example dynamically assigned to user A (U2) 50, to other users B (U1) 75 so that using subcarrier Number can change.
Accompany with this, service band becomes 50 × 80 [kHz]=4 [MHz] for user A, becomes 75 × 80 for user B [kHz]=6 [MHz], service band is variable according to each user.Now, if allocated subcarrier is even on the frequency axis Continuous.Moreover, it is also possible to make the segmentation variable-width of frequency band.
Figure 35 is the figure of the main points representing the prior art disclosed in patent documentation 2.This figure is to represent being total on frequency axiss Figure with the distribution form of control channel data channel.
The system in multi-carrier CDMA system, control signal is transmitted special subcarrier data transmission, and (believe by data Road) special subcarrier separates and set.This shared control channel is expanded by intrinsic extended code.Therefore, exist In the case of receiving this shared control channel, demodulate specific subcarrier, its signal processing amount can be reduced.
Figure 36 is the figure of the main points representing the prior art disclosed in patent documentation 3.This figure represents the number in above-mentioned Figure 35 It is believed that the situation that the frequency band in road can change according to propagation distance (communication distance and base station between).Wherein, send Power is also carried out changing (big-in-little).
The system is to set the transmission speed of every 1 subcarrier as fixing, and the number distributing to the subcarrier of user can become Changing, thus realizing the system of the communication of variable velocity, in the case that the distance between base station and terminal are close, making each The transmit power of subcarrier diminishes, and distributes more subcarrier, when it is distant, while making sending out of each subcarrier Send power to become big, distribute less subcarrier.
In addition, on the one hand making the subcarrier that shared control channel uses be minority, on the other hand to data communication channel (data channel) distributes multiple subcarriers, is kept completely separate the two on the frequency axis to configure.And, special using shared control channel Subcarrier, notifies to movement station to distribute to the center sub-carriers number of the subcarrier of data channel from base station and is used Subcarrier quantity.
Figure 37 is the figure of the main points representing the prior art disclosed in patent documentation 4.This figure represents according to communication environments Quality can change the situation of the bandwidth of each subcarrier.
It is constant, simultaneously that the system makes total number of subcarrier in wireless transmissions according to the situation of communication environments Change the bandwidth of each subcarrier.So that the frequency band of each subcarrier broadens for example when this propagation state degenerates.Thus, Subcarrier due to can not make total changes to be transmitted it is possible to will transmit speed regardless of the quality of communication environments Degree is maintained constant.
The present invention is used for solving by the prior art (patent documentation 1~4) illustrated by above-mentioned Figure 34~Figure 37 respectively Each problem points above-mentioned having, describe in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 2 is the figure representing the basic structure of communicator (receiving side) based on the present invention.
In Fig. 1, cross reference number 10 represents communicator (sending side), and in Fig. 2, cross reference number 20 represents that communicator (receives Side), they are accommodated in identical communication system (mobile body communication system).And, as described above, communicator 10 is base station And communicator 20 is terminal, otherwise or can also, the present invention can be applied, but in order to be best understood from, say in following Illustrate as long as no special in bright, the communicator 10 just setting sending side is base station, if the communicator of receiving side 20 is end End.
With reference first to Fig. 1, service band selection/configuration part 15 especially using selection function select should with counterparting communications The service band using between device 20.Transmission is imported into based on " service band information " If (frequency) of this selection Data generating section 11, herein, generating is become with transmission data (user data) Du (user) that should be transferred to communicator 20 Transmission data Dt (transmission) of one.Therefore send data Dt and comprise transmission data Du and service band information If, But actually also contain other " communication control information " Ict (control).This information Ict is, for example, with regard to uses such as QAM The information of modulation system and the information of transmitted data amount of 1 time with regard to transmission data Du etc..
After above-mentioned transmission data Dt has been applied in the modulation of regulation in modulation portion 12, it is input to the overloading of next stage Ripple transmits transmission processe department 13.By the set-up function of above-mentioned service band selection/configuration part 15, this processing unit 13 is applied to refer to Show band setting indication signal Sb (band) that transmission processe be carried out on above-mentioned selected service band, this processing unit 13 in the frequency band based on this signal Sb, carries out the signal transmission processe according to multi-carrier transmission.
And then in radio section 14, frequency conversion is carried out for transmission data signal St from above-mentioned processing unit 13, from The antenna AT of next stage sends the signal after this conversion to counterparting communications device (terminal) 20.
On the other hand, with reference to Fig. 2, receive the wireless signal from above-mentioned antenna AT (Fig. 1) with antenna AT (Fig. 2), then Carry out frequency conversion in radio section 21, become receiving data signal Sr, and input to multi-carrier transmission reception processing unit 22.? In this processing unit 22, this receiving data signal Sr is carried out with the signal reception processing according to multi-carrier transmission, and then in next stage Demodulation section 23 in demodulate the signal after this signal reception processing.
Receiving data Dr after this demodulation is decoded in receiving data lsb decoder 24, is separated into the transmission data of script Du and above-mentioned service band information If being set before.And also isolate above-mentioned Control on Communication letter from this data Dr Breath Ict.And, by this information Ict control partially due to the direct relation that do not have substantially with the present invention, thus omit it and say Bright.
As described above, service band information If of script obtained from receiving data Dr is separated is input to using frequency Band configuration part 25.This configuration part 25 receives this information If to reproduce above-mentioned band setting indication signal Sb.This signal Sb quilt Be applied to above-mentioned multi-carrier transmission reception processing unit 22, carry out in the selected frequency band in sending side in reason portion 22 in this place according to Signal reception processing according to multi-carrier transmission.Furthermore, it is also possible to establish radiolink originally, select predetermined frequency Band.
The present invention is by above-mentioned band setting indication signal Sb, and makes sending side (10) and receiving side (20) can use phase Same service band.And can expansion simultaneously, contracting in sending side (10) and receiving side (20) this both sides according to this signal Sb Little or change this service band.The above-mentioned purpose of the present invention so can be reached.
While carrying out contrasting the basic structure somewhat specifically describing the invention described above on one side again with above-mentioned prior art.
In the present invention, multiple frequency bands can be divided into by frequency band used in communication system entirety.For example, this communication When the overall service band of system is 20 [MHz], with a frequency band for 5 [MHz], it is divided into four.Using this frequency band 5 [MHz] is transmitting the control channel that service band information is transmitted and the transmission channel (number that transmission data is transmitted It is believed that road) each information.
According to the present invention, as described above, being used for transmitting the frequency band of this control channel to major general as " main band ", also will be by The frequency band of expansion is as " expansion frequency band ".If for example considered with ofdm communication system, set each frequency band 5 above-mentioned [MHz] comprises 100 subcarriers, also sets a width of 50 [kHz] of band of each this subcarrier, using this 100 a series of secondary loads Ripple, to transmit each information of control channel data channel.The multiplexing method of two information can be time-multiplexed, channeling Or extended code multiplexing.
As described above, it is different from patent documentation 3 (Japanese patent gazette JP 2004-214746), by receiving " dominant frequency Band " information is being decoded, thus clear and definite service band (or quantity of service band) is it is possible to be easy to carry out using frequency Band expansion, reduce or change.And it is thus civilian with patent documentation 1 (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication 9-205411) and patent Offer 3 (Japanese patent gazette JP 2004-214746) difference, the structure of acceptance division also becomes simple.
In addition, if the quantity of the subcarrier of each frequency band be constant, then change with the quantity of service band and The quantity of subcarrier is made to change with ratio of integers.Therefore, if comparing the patent documentation 3 (Japan Patent of subcarrier dynamic change Publication JP 2004-214746), then the structure of acceptance division becomes simple.
And, by service band being specified to terminal from base station in advance, such that it is able to being easily changed and adding above-mentioned expansion Frequency band, can also carry out the change of main band.
And then, fix the bandwidth of each subcarrier if as discussed above, then will not be as patent documentation 4 (Japanese patent gazette JP 2002-330467) like that impact is brought on other users, thus it is possible to vary service band.Explanation is based on the present invention below Various embodiments.

In addition, carrying out premised on the communication under OFDM for the explanation of above-mentioned concrete example, but outside can also use MC-CDMA's Communication is as premise.In the case of this latter, an example of the communicator on (MC-CDMA basis) represents herein.
Fig. 7 is the figure representing another variation of communicator (sending side) 10 based on the present invention.
Fig. 8 is the figure representing another variation of communicator (receiving side) 20 based on the present invention.
For example compare above-mentioned Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 and this Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, in sending side (10), multi-carrier transmission transmission processe department 13 Structure different, and in receiving side (20), the structure of multi-carrier transmission reception processing unit 22 is different.
That is, in the processing unit 13 shown in Fig. 7, difference is using duplication portion (Copier) 46 and multiplier 47. In addition, in the processing unit 22 shown in Fig. 8, difference is using multiplier 65 and combining unit (∑) 66.
First by Fig. 7, sending action is described.Modulate generated transmission data, in duplication portion (Copier) 46 according to The quantity of subcarrier is replicated.In multiplier 47, extended code (C1, C2 ... Cn) is multiplied by the signal that this is replicated.This is tied Fruit carries out IFFT in IFFT Department (38,38 ') and carrys out execution time-frequency conversion.Then, in GI insertion department 40, inserting Carry out frequency conversion after GI, and sent with antenna AT.In addition, with the service band using selection in frequency band selection portion 15 as base Plinth, changes the setting of multi-carrier transmission transmission processe department 13.
Next, with regard to reception action, being illustrated using Fig. 8.Frequency conversion receipt signal first obtaining base band, GI is removed in GI removing unit 54.Then, carry out serial/parallel conversion (55,55 '), be each multiplied by multiplier 65 extended code (C1, C2 ... Cn) being de-spread.In FFT portion (56,56 '), FFT is carried out to this result, after having carried out frequency-time conversion Combining unit 66 takes and.Demodulate this result in demodulation section 23.Carry out process similar to the above afterwards, extract service band letter Breath If.Then, to change the setting of multi-carrier transmission reception processing unit 22 based on service band information If that this extracts. And, in figures 7 and 8, when changing service band, make number of codes n of frequency expansion variable.MC- used as discussed above In the case of CDMA, compare with OFDM and can simplify apparatus structure.But then, due to producing the points making FFT and IFFT Can be with the needs of dynamic change, so making control become numerous and diverse.
Below while the configuration structure with reference to frequency band is while further illustrate present embodiment 1.
In the communication system of the changed service band using OFDM etc., with specific frequency band transmission service band information If.Then, by demodulating and decoding specific frequency band, service band information If can be obtained.By this information If, can carry out Communication under the frequency band expanded.As its premise, in the present invention, it is carried out as follows the segmentation of whole frequency band.
Fig. 9 is the figure of the situation representing the frequency division in communication system.The a series of subcarrier of this figure represents distribution Whole frequency band to communication system.Then this whole frequency band is divided into multiple frequency bands.This figure represents the example being divided into 4 parts, It is divided into four frequency bands, i.e. " frequency band 1 ", " frequency band 2 ", " frequency band 3 ", " frequency band 4 ".Then select these " frequency bands 1 "~" frequency band 4 " In some as above-mentioned " main band ", the frequency band outside reselection is as above-mentioned " expansion frequency band ".
Figure 10 is to represent the figure selecting the situation of " main band " and " expansion frequency band " respectively.As " main band " for example Select above-mentioned frequency band 1, for example select above-mentioned frequency band 2 as " expansion frequency band ".As described above, " main band " distributes to control channel (CH) transmission of data channel (CH), " expansion frequency band " distributes to the transmission of further data channel.For example by base station or Its upper base-station control apparatus of person determine the main band that certain terminal uses.Or can also be conversely, from end side to base station side Specified main band.
Above-mentioned main band can also be fixed as communication system in advance, or can also be at communicator mutually (base station and end End) between set when establishing wireless, fix this setting until this sign off.
And then when can also work as communicator (user terminal) and having multiple, set different according to each user terminal Main band.In figure represents this situation.
Figure 11 is the figure of the 1st of the method for salary distribution representing the main band for multiple users.
Figure 12 is the figure of the 2nd of the method for salary distribution representing the main band for multiple users.And this method of salary distribution can To be applied to expand frequency band.
With reference first to Figure 11, to multiple frequency bands, i.e. frequency band 1~frequency band 4 each be respectively allocated each user U1~U4's Main band.Wherein, the quantity now by frequency band to limit number of users.
Then as shown in figure 12, same main band is simultaneously allocated to multiple communicators (user terminal).It is permissible It is multiplexed to carry out by user.As this multiplexing method, there is time-multiplexed and extended code multiplexing, or can also be in conjunction with them It is multiplexed.
And then in present embodiment 1, according to the required transmission speed of data message (transmission data Du), can increase and decrease makes With frequency band (frequency band 1~frequency band 4).
That is, in a base station it is considered to the communication conditions of the other-end communicating, communication environments and service band etc., when When being judged as to use other frequency bands, carry out the expansion of service band.And, in expansion it is also possible to according to terminal room Transmission data attribute (the QoS of the priority of communication and required transmission speed etc.:Quality of Service) preferentially to enter The expansion of row usage frequency.
So, because service band information If is transmitted in specific frequency band (main band), so receiving side is first only Receiving this main band can be it is not necessary to receive other frequency bands to be demodulated and to decode.And, by using expanding frequency band, The speed of transmission speed can further be improved, it is possible to achieve the improvement of efficiency of frequency employment.

Above-mentioned pilot signal Sp sends information multiplexings with others in practice and is transmitted.This multiplexing method example If any following 2 kinds.
Figure 16 is the figure of the 1st multiplexing example representing pilot signal.
Figure 17 is the figure of the 2nd multiplexing example representing pilot signal.And two in figures, " P " represents pilot signal Sp, " C " Represent above-mentioned communication control information Ict, " D " represents above-mentioned transmission data Du.
Figure 16 represents the situation of pilot signals Sp on time orientation, and on the other hand, Figure 17 represents in time orientation Situation with upper pilot signals Sp of the both sides of frequency direction.
Figure 18 is the figure of the dynamic modification of main band concisely illustrating above-mentioned 2nd embodiment.Time is through from this figure Upper downwards.Pass through with this time, main band follows better communication environments, for example according to " frequency band 1 " → " frequency band 2 " → The mode of " frequency band 1 " → " frequency band 4 " changes.
As described above, base station is in all frequency bands applied, it is multiplexed the signal (pilot tone) for measuring communication environments It is used as control channel transmission.And it is also contemplated that not comprising the situation of transmission data Du in practice.Can also replace Pilot signal Sp is arranging pilot channel.
Terminal, with regard to all of frequency band (frequency band 1~frequency band 4), receives pilot frequency channel signal, measures such as SNR and CIR (Carrier to Interference Ratio:Carrier interference ratio) etc. reception situation and communication environments, according to this measured value To calculate above-mentioned CQI, using ascending control channel, sequentially or simultaneously to transmit to base station according to each frequency band.Furthermore, it is also possible to Former state transmits the measurement result of above-mentioned CIR and SNR etc..
The base station that receiving ascending control channel signal, with CQI is demodulated and decodes is best in multiple CQI by having The frequency band selection of CQI value is main band.The change timing of this selection result and main band is equipped on down control channel upload It is defeated by terminal.
Terminal receives this downlink channel control signal and is demodulated and decodes, and extracts service band and change timing Each information.Then, carry out the change of service band according to this change timing.And, changing timing can also for example pass through definitely Time, relative time or time slot units are determining.Moreover, it is also possible to not transmit change timing, by from down control channel The transmission of signal rises to be delayed after 5 time slots etc., to carry out system and to fix.
Above-mentioned middle frequency band selection best for communication environments is main band, but be also contemplated for situation due to other-end and The situation of best frequency band cannot be selected.In this case can select to be equivalent to its 2nd good frequency band.
And, this is in the selection that base station one side carries out main band, it is also possible to similarly select to propagate ring in terminal The best frequency band in border to transmit to base station.
The mensure of SNR and CIR in terminal etc. as set forth above, it is possible to measure it is also possible to according to the time simultaneously to each frequency band Separate to set.And, under the continuous situation waiting of frequency band of narrower bandwidth, because communication environments will not be widely varied, institute One frequency band can only be measured with this situation.And, this measured value can be the meansigma methodss measuring after certain time.
In addition, describe expansion frequency band in the 1st embodiment only send transmission data Du, but in order to measure each frequency band Communication environments are it is also possible to except transmission data Du also sends pilot channel or pilot signal.
In the above description, illustrate from base station the transmission to terminal, but also same to the transmission of base station from terminal on the contrary Sample can be suitable for.
As described above, usually the transmission characteristic of control channel must be than the transmission characteristic of data channel in its transmission quality On will get well.So, the main band comprising control channel needs to select the preferable frequency band of communication environments, but by above-mentioned action, can With by the frequency band selection positioned at best communication environments as main band.And, even if communication environments pass through in time and become Dynamic it is also possible to all the time the frequency band selection positioned at optimal communication environments is main band.
Thus, not only reduce the error of transmission of control channel information, the device being also easy to carry out receiving side sets, but also Transmission quality can be improved.And then, result from the data of error of transmission and retransmit number of times due to reducing, it is possible to making biography Defeated speed is more at a high speed.
And then, it is set as variable it is possible to avoid the inequality of the behaviour in service (load) between frequency band due to main band, The improvement of frequency usage efficiency can be realized.
