Fig. 5 is the key diagram that represents the channel architecture between mobile communication terminal 6 and base station 5, has represented to utilize the channel architecture W-CDMA mode in the example of Fig. 5.But actual channel occupation mode is likely to use in multiple combining channels to channel.
First, the physical channel towards the down direction of mobile communication terminal 6 from base station 5 is described.
For the whole mobile communication terminals 6 that are present in the compass of competency of base station 5, what in the time reporting timing base, use has a CPICH (Common Pilot Channel: Common Pilot Channel), and what in the time notifying other to report information, use has a P-CCPCH (Primary-Common ControlPhysical Channel: basic Common Control Channel).In addition, P-CCPCH is also as reporting information channel BCH (Broadcast channel: broadcast channel).
In addition, what base station 5 was used in the time that each mobile communication terminal 6 sends signaling or data has S-CCPCH (Secondary-Common Control Physical Channel: auxiliary Common Control Channel), and S-CCPCH allows to set many.

In addition, DPCH is used separately by terminal, is therefore called as separate channel; Other channels, by the public use of multiple terminals, are therefore called as common signal channel.
Its action is then described.
First, GGSN2 takes out the multi-medium data of the content of being taken care of by service centre 1, and this multi-medium data is sent to SGSN3.
SGSN3 is in the time receiving multi-medium data from GGSN2,1 the above mobile communication terminal 6 that retrieves the distribution services that uses this content, is transferred to the multi-medium data of these contents the base-station control apparatus 4 being connected with the base station 5 that has held these mobile communication terminals 6.
Base-station control apparatus 4 in the time receiving multi-medium data from SGSN3, control base station 5 in case utilize S-CCPCH by multi-medium data from base station 5 points send.
Mobile communication terminal 6 receives from any one base station 5 among multiple base stations 5 and utilizes S-CCPCH channel to divide the multi-medium data sending.
But, even if mobile communication terminal 6 is just positioned in the compass of competency of the base station 5 of distributing multimedia data, for example, when near the situation periphery that is positioned at compass of competency, the electric wave sending out from base station 5 can die down, and the quality of reception can variation.
Near the periphery of compass of competency, the reasons are as follows of the quality of reception variation of S-CCPCH channel.Here, for ease of explanation, suppose as shown in Figure 6, base-station control apparatus 4 is connected with base station B with base station A, and mobile communication terminal 6 is positioned near the periphery of compass of competency of base station A.
In this case, mobile communication terminal 6 is closer with the distance of base station B, and therefore, separate channel DPCH, except being set between mobile communication terminal 6 and base station A, is sometimes also set between mobile communication terminal 6 and base station B.
Between mobile communication terminal 6 and base station A, B, set in the situation of DPCH, utilized data that DPCH sends out from base station A, B and both sides' data are carried out to maximum ratio synthetic by reception, just can improve the quality of reception of these data.
But because common signal channel S-CCPCH is only set between mobile communication terminal 6 and base station A or base station B, so it is synthetic to carry out the data that send out from base station A and base station B maximum ratio each other, its data receiver quality exists the trend of variation.
Therefore, in order to ensure the quality of reception of S-CCPCH, increase the power of distributing to S-CCPCH in base station 5 and send, but, as mentioned above, when having increased base station 5 while distributing to the power of S-CCPCH, the transmitted power of distributing to other channels can reduce relatively, therefore the information quality of reception meeting variation of, utilizing other channels to send.
In the 1st execution mode, the quality of reception of distributing to the power of S-CCPCH and improving S-CCPCH in order not increase base station 5, makes mobile communication terminal 6 have structure as shown in Figure 2.
The following describes the action of the mobile communication terminal 6 of Fig. 2.Fig. 7 and Fig. 8 are the flow charts that represents the contents processing of the mobile communication terminal of the 1st execution mode of the present invention.
Mobile communication terminal 6 likely receives the wireless signal that utilizes S-CCPCH to send out from more than 3 base stations 5, but restricted on the hardware due to the receiving terminal at mobile communication terminal 6, so not using whole base stations 5 as monitored object, and just using possible to a certain extent base station 5 (the large base station 5 of raising possibility of the quality of reception) as monitored object.Here, as shown in Figure 6, suppose using base station A and base station B as monitored object, receive the wireless signal sending out from base station A, B.But, because wireless signal arrives mobile communication terminal 6 from base station A, B through various paths, so being moved communication terminal as multipath signal respectively, the wireless signal sending out from base station A, B receives for more than 6 time.
In addition, multiple base stations 5 and mobile communication terminal 6 between do not set stage of S-CCPCH, as wireless signal, can consider not send at once multi-medium data, but pilot signal transmitted; Also can send at once multi-medium data.
First,, in the time that antenna 11 receives the wireless signal being sent out by base station A or base station B and is multipath signal, this multipath signal is amplified in the low noise enlarging section 12 of mobile communication terminal 6.
In the time that multipath signal is amplified in low noise enlarging section 12, frequency conversion part 13 converts and RF signal is outputed to A/D transformation component 14 frequency of this multipath signal.
In the time receiving analog signal from frequency conversion part 13 and be RF signal, this RF signal is carried out analog/digital conversion by A/D transformation component 14, is that RF signal outputs to the synthetic portion 18 of RAKE and search section 15 by digital signal.
In the time receiving the RF signal of digital signal from A/D transformation component 14, search section 15 detects the transmission source base station 5 of this multipath signal by carrying out cell search process., confirm the multipath signal that received by antenna 11 be send out from base station A or send from base station B.
Particularly, along with the movement of mobile communication terminal 6, multipath signal can be subject to the impact of phasing and change, therefore, search section 15 is set code or the timing etc. of S-CCPCH and is carried out the search (step ST1) of S-CCPCH, thereby calculates the delay curve (profile) etc. (step ST2) of corresponding S-CCPCH (S-CCPCH relevant to base station A, the S-CCPCH relevant with base station B).
Branch road distributes control part 17 to control the synthetic portion 18 of RAKE, makes to retrieve the peak value of the delay curve calculating by search section 15, and multipath signal when this peak value is assigned to the branch road portion (step ST3) of the synthetic portion 18 of RAKE.
Now, the base station 5 of monitored object is that Active Set is base station A, B, therefore, for example, if the transmission source of the multipath signal being received by antenna 11 is not yet to distribute the RF signal of exporting from A/D transformation component 14 on the 18a of branch road portion of the synthetic portion 18 of base station A and RAKE, branch road distributes 17 of control parts to control the synthetic portions 18 of RAKE so that this RF signal (hereinafter referred to as RF signal A-1) is assigned to the 18a of branch road portion.
In addition, if the transmission source of the multipath signal receiving by antenna 11 is to have distributed the RF signal of exporting from A/D transformation component 14 on the 18a of branch road portion of the synthetic portion 18 of base station A and RAKE, control the synthetic portion 18 of RAKE so that this RF signal (hereinafter referred to as RF signal A-2) is assigned to the 18b of branch road portion.
If the transmission source of the multipath signal receiving by antenna 11 is not yet to distribute the RF signal of exporting from A/D transformation component 14 on the 18c of branch road portion of the synthetic portion 18 of base station B and RAKE, branch road distributes 17 of control parts to control the synthetic portions 18 of RAKE so that this RF signal (hereinafter referred to as RF signal B-1) is assigned to the 18c of branch road portion.
In addition, if the transmission source of the multipath signal receiving by antenna 11 is to have distributed the RF signal of exporting from A/D transformation component 14 on the 18c of branch road portion of the synthetic portion 18 of base station B and RAKE, control the synthetic portion 18 of RAKE so that this RF signal (hereinafter referred to as RF signal B-2) is assigned to the 18d of branch road portion.
Code generator 16 generates the scrambler corresponding with the base station 5 detecting by search section 15.For example, if the base station 5 of the transmission source of this multipath signal is base station A, generate the scrambler corresponding with this base station A, if the base station 5 of the transmission source of this multipath signal is base station B, generate the scrambler corresponding with this base station B.
In the time of input rf signal A-1~B-2, the 18a of the branch road portion~18d of the synthetic portion 18 of RAKE utilizes the scrambler being generated by code generator 16 by this RF signal A-1~B-2 demodulation.
In the time that RF signal A-1, A-2 are assigned to the 18a of branch road portion, 18b, it is synthetic that this RF signal A-1 and RF signal A-2 are carried out maximum ratio by the synthetic 18e of portion in the synthetic Bu18 of RAKE community, and this composite signal (hereinafter referred to as composite signal A) is saved in to community input store 19a (step ST4, ST5).
In addition, in the time that RF signal B-1, B-2 are assigned to the 18c of branch road portion, 18d, it is synthetic that this RF signal B-1 and RF signal B-2 are carried out maximum ratio by the synthetic 18f of portion in the synthetic Bu18 of RAKE community, and this composite signal (hereinafter referred to as composite signal B) is saved in to community input store 19b (step ST4, ST5).
In the time that composite signal A is saved in community input store 19a by the synthetic 18e of portion in the synthetic Bu18 of RAKE community, lsb decoder 20 is processed (step ST11, ST12) by the fast decoding (TurboDecode) of carrying out this composite signal A, whereby this composite signal A is decoded and decoded composite signal A is saved in the output storage 21a of community (step ST13).
In addition, in the time that composite signal B is saved in community input store 19b by the synthetic 18f of portion in the synthetic Bu18 of RAKE community, lsb decoder 20, by carrying out the fast decoding processing (step ST11, ST12) to this composite signal B, is decoded this composite signal B decoded composite signal B is saved in the output storage 21b of community (step ST13) whereby.
Selection portion 22 successful composite signal of selective decompression output to common down channel acceptance division 23 from be kept at decoded composite signal A, the B community output storage 21a, 21b.
For example, check the CRC result (step ST14) of decoded composite signal A, B, thereby confirm that this CRC result is normal composite signal.
In addition, selecting a CRC result is normal composite signal (step ST15), and this composite signal is outputed to common down channel acceptance division 23 (step ST16).
In the time that common down channel acceptance division 23 receives the composite signal choosing by selection portion 22, if this composite signal is control information, just this composite signal is outputed to protocol processes portion 26; If this composite signal is application data, this composite signal is outputed to application handling part 27.
When protocol processes portion 26 receives while being the composite signal of control information from common down channel acceptance division 23, carry out the processing relevant to Control on Communication of setting/release or the handing-over etc. of channel according to this control information.
; if the composite signal of exporting from common down channel acceptance division 23 is relevant to the multipath signal sending out from base station A; protocol processes portion 26 just carries out for setting the Control on Communication processing etc. of S-CCPCH between itself and base station A; if the composite signal of exporting from common down channel acceptance division 23 is relevant to the multipath signal sending out from base station B, protocol processes portion 26 just carries out for setting the Control on Communication processing etc. of S-CCPCH between itself and base station B.
Then, search section 15 is searched for the multipath signal of the S-CCPCH setting by protocol processes portion 26, the synthetic portion 18 of RAKE carries out maximum ratio by the multiple multipath signals that search by search section 15 and synthesizes, and this composite signal is saved in community output storage 21a by lsb decoder 20.
As mentioned above by protocol processes portion 26 and base station A or base station B between set S-CCPCH after, when receiving from common down channel acceptance division 23 while being the composite signal of application data, application handling part 27 is just according to conversion process such as these application data execution sound encoding and decoding or image coding and decodings.
In addition, when the decoded composite signal being kept in the output storage 21a of community is to report in the situation of information, because selection portion 22 is not carried out the selection processing of composite signal, receive this composite signal and output to protocol processes portion 26 so report information acceptance division 24.
Even if the decoded composite signal being kept in the output storage 21a of community is application data or control information, the in the situation that of utilizing descending separate channel to send over by base station 5, because selection portion 22 is not carried out the selection processing of composite signal, so descending separate channel acceptance division 25 receives this composite signal, if this composite signal is application data, just this composite signal is outputed to application handling part 27, if this composite signal is control information, just this composite signal is outputed to protocol processes portion 26.
As known from the above, by means of the 1st execution mode, the multipath signal relevant to the wireless signal that utilizes S-CCPCH to send out from multiple base stations 5 distributed to each transmission source base station and by be that multiple multipath signals that same base station 5 is relevant carry out maximum ratio synthetic with transmission source, and by this composite signal decoding, the successful composite signal of selective decompression from this decoded composite signal, due to this structure, can obtain base station 5 and also can improve the effect of the quality of reception of wireless signal without controlling transmitted power.
In addition, what in the 1st execution mode, represent is that the 18a of branch road portion, 18b input relevant RF signal A-1, the A-2 of multipath signal sending out to base station A, and the 18c of branch road portion, 18d input relevant RF signal B-1, the B-2 of multipath signal sending out to base station B; Distribution for the RF signal of the 18a~18d of branch road portion can be also arbitrarily, for example, also can be that the 18a of branch road portion, 18b, 18c input relevant RF signal A-1, A-2, the A-3 of multipath signal sending out to base station A, the 18d of branch road portion inputs the relevant RF signal B-1 of multipath signal sending out to base station B.
In addition, in the 1st execution mode, represent that RAKE synthesizes portion 18 and carried the synthetic 18f of portion in synthetic Bu18eHe community, community, but the synthetic portion in 1 community also can only be carried in the synthetic portion 18 of RAKE, the synthetic portion in this community has the function of the synthetic 18f of portion in synthetic Bu18eHe community, community concurrently.
In addition because the hardware of lsb decoder 20 in general circuit scale is larger, so what represent is to carry out decoding by lsb decoder 20 timesharing to process, but 2 lsb decoders can certainly be installed in the 1st execution mode.
Further, in the 1st execution mode, represent to install 2 community input store 19a, 19b and the example of 2 community output storage 21a, 21b has also been installed, only possessed respectively 1 memory but can certainly be configured to simultaneously.
The 2nd execution mode
Selection portion 22Cong community output storage 21a has been described in above-mentioned the 1st execution mode, the decoded composite signal A preserving in 21b, the successful composite signal of selective decompression output to the example of common down channel acceptance division 23 in B, but as shown in Figure 9, also can be whether the decoded result that for example elder generation is kept at the decoded composite signal A in the output storage 21a of community by selection portion 22 confirmations is good, if this decoded result is good, whether the decoded result of just no longer confirming to be kept at the decoded composite signal B in the output storage 21b of community is good, and decoded composite signal A is outputed to common down channel acceptance division 23 (step ST17, ST18).In addition, if it is not good being kept at the decoded result of the decoded composite signal A in the output storage 21a of community, whether well confirm to be kept at the decoded result of the decoded composite signal B in the output storage 21b of community, if this decoded result is good, just decoded composite signal B is outputed to common down channel acceptance division 23.
By means of the 2nd execution mode, if the decoded result of first confirming is good, just no longer need other the whether good confirmation processing of decoded result, therefore, can obtain the effect that reduces useless processing.
The 3rd execution mode
In above-mentioned the 1st execution mode, represent that Active Set is set as the example of base station A, B, but more new demand unit also can be set, this unit compares mutually to the incoming level of the wireless signal sending out from multiple base stations 5, sends the more new demand of Active Set according to its comparative result.
In addition, the search section 15 of Fig. 2 and agreement control part 26 have formed change request unit.
Figure 10 and Figure 11 are the flow charts that represents the contents processing of the mobile communication terminal of the 3rd execution mode of the present invention.
