(Physical channel)
The physical channel used in the present invention includes a physical broadcast channel, a physical downlink shared channel, a physical downlink control channel, a downlink reference signal, a physical uplink shared channel, a physical uplink control channel, a physical random access channel, an uplink A link reference signal and the like are included. Each embodiment of the present invention to be described later can be applied even if different physical channel types are added to the physical channel.

  A physical broadcast channel (PBCH: Physical Broadcast Channel) is transmitted for the purpose of reporting control parameters (broadcast information) that are commonly used by mobile station apparatuses in a cell. The broadcast information that is not notified on the physical broadcast channel is transmitted using the physical downlink shared channel with the resource notified on the physical downlink control channel. As broadcast information, a cell global ID indicating an individual ID (Identity) of the cell is notified. The PBCH is mapped with a broadcast channel (BCH) at intervals of 40 milliseconds. The timing of 40 milliseconds is subjected to blind detection in the mobile station apparatus. That is, no explicit signaling is transmitted to the mobile station apparatus for timing presentation of the physical broadcast channel. In addition, a subframe including a physical broadcast channel (PBCH) can be decoded only by the subframe (self-decodable).

  A physical downlink control channel (PDCCH: Physical Downlink Control Channel) is a downlink channel transmitted from a base station apparatus to a mobile station apparatus, and is commonly used for a plurality of mobile station apparatuses. The base station apparatus uses a downlink control channel for transmission of transmission timing information and scheduling information (uplink / downlink resource allocation information). A physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) is a channel used for transmitting downlink data or paging information. The radio resource control signal is transmitted using a downlink shared channel.

  A downlink reference signal (DL-RS: Downlink Reference Signal or Cell-specific Reference Signal) is transmitted from a base station apparatus to a mobile station apparatus using a downlink channel. The mobile station apparatus determines downlink reception quality by measuring a downlink reference signal. The reception quality is reported to the base station apparatus using a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) as CQI (Channel Quality Indicator) which is a quality information index. The base station apparatus performs downlink communication scheduling for the mobile station apparatus based on the CQI notified from the mobile station apparatus. The reception quality includes SIR (Signal-to-Interference Ratio), SINR (Signal-to-Interference plus Noise Ratio), SNR (Signal-to-Noise Ratio). : Signal-to-noise power ratio), CIR (Carrier-to-Interference Ratio), BLER (Block Error Rate), path loss, etc. can be used.

  The physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH: Physical Uplink Shared Channel) is a channel mainly used for transmitting uplink data (UL-SCH: Uplink Shared Channel). When the base station apparatus schedules the mobile station apparatus, channel state information (downlink channel quality indicator (CQI: Channel Quality Indicator), precoding matrix indicator (PMI: Precoding Matrix Indicator), rank indicator (RI: Rank Indicator)) and Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ: Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request) acknowledgment (ACK: Acknowledgement) / Negative Acknowledgment (NACK: Negative Acknowledgment) also use the physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH). Sent. Here, uplink data (UL-SCH) indicates transmission of user data, for example, and UL-SCH is a transport channel. In UL-SCH, HARQ and dynamic adaptive radio link control are supported, and beamforming can be used. UL-SCH supports dynamic resource allocation and quasi-static resource allocation.

  A physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) is a channel used for transmitting control data. Here, the control data is, for example, channel state information (CQI, PMI, RI) transmitted (feedback) from the mobile station apparatus to the base station apparatus, and resource allocation for the mobile station apparatus to transmit uplink data Scheduling request (SR: Scheduling Request) for requesting transmission (UL-SCH), HARQ ACK / NACK for downlink transmission, and the like.

  An uplink reference signal (UL-RS) is transmitted from the mobile station apparatus to the base station apparatus. UL-RS includes a sounding reference signal (SRS) and a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS). The base station apparatus performs channel measurement using a sounding reference signal that is a channel measurement reference signal, determines the reception quality of the uplink radio transmission signal of the mobile station apparatus, and performs uplink scheduling and uplink based on the reception quality. Adjust link timing synchronization.

  The demodulation reference signal is transmitted together with the physical uplink shared channel, and the base station apparatus calculates the amplitude, phase, and frequency fluctuation amount of the physical uplink shared channel, and uses the physical uplink shared channel. Mainly used to demodulate the transmitted signal. The DM-RS transmission bandwidth matches the PUSCH transmission bandwidth, but the SRS transmission bandwidth is set independently of the DM-RS.

  The transmission bandwidth of SRS is preset in the base station apparatus. Further, frequency hopping is applied to the SRS in the time axis direction. SRS can obtain a frequency diversity effect and an interference averaging effect by using frequency hopping. The first reference signal for channel measurement (A-SRS: Aperiodic SRS) is a reference signal for aperiodic channel measurement transmitted when the base station apparatus requests transmission, and the first reference signal. Is transmitted using the physical downlink control channel. Further, the second reference signal for channel measurement (P-SRS: Periodic SRS) is a reference signal for channel measurement transmitted according to a transmission period preset by the base station apparatus, and the second reference signal. Is transmitted using a radio resource control signal. Here, timing means a subframe to which resources of each signal are allocated.

  A physical random access channel (PRACH) is a physical channel used for transmitting a random access preamble and has a guard time. The PRACH is mainly used for the mobile station apparatus to synchronize with the base station apparatus, and is used for initial access, handover, reconnection request, and scheduling request.

  The scheduling request is information indicating a request for allocation of physical uplink shared channel resources from the mobile station apparatus to the base station apparatus. The mobile station apparatus transmits a scheduling request when information data to be transmitted accumulates in its own buffer and requests resource allocation of the physical uplink shared channel. In addition, the mobile station apparatus transmits a scheduling request to the base station apparatus using a physical uplink control channel of resources allocated in advance by the base station apparatus. Note that the base station apparatus allocates periodic resources for the mobile station apparatus to place a scheduling request when communication connection with the mobile station apparatus starts.

(Interface protocol of each layer)
Each layer of the radio interface protocol between the mobile station apparatus and the network is based on a reference model of open system interconnection (OSI), L1 (first layer), L2 (second layer), L3 (Third layer) The physical layer belonging to the first layer provides an information transmission service to an upper layer using a physical channel. In addition, it is connected to a medium access control (MAC) layer of the second layer through a transport channel (also called a transmission channel). Data is then transmitted between the MAC layer and the physical layer through the transport channel.

  The MAC layer belonging to the second layer provides services such as resource allocation between the logical channel and the transport channel to the radio link control (RLC) layer through the logical channel. The RLC layer supports reliable data transmission. Since the function of the RLC layer may be implemented by a functional block in the MAC layer, the RLC layer may not exist. The second layer includes a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer in addition to the MAC layer and the RLC layer. The PDCP layer compresses the header information added to the packet data so that it can be efficiently transmitted over the wireless link, or performs packet order management to prevent data loss.

  A radio resource control (RRC) layer belonging to the third layer controls a transport channel and a physical channel in association with setting, reconfiguration, and release of a radio bearer. The RRC layer notifies the mobile station apparatus of system information and call information from the network, and also controls the first layer and the second layer necessary for them. It also controls resources between the mobile station device and the network. Next, the configuration of the uplink signal will be described.

Further, 14 symbols (corresponding to 2 slots) correspond to 1 subframe, and the length of 1 subframe is 1 millisecond. In addition, FIG. 10 has shown the structure of the uplink signal of one component carrier.

Further, the PRACH is allocated with the bandwidth and the time symbol length changed according to the type and format of the message to be transmitted.

For example, when SRS and PUCCH occur in the same subframe, this is information for instructing the mobile station apparatus 3 to perform a process of not transmitting SRS.

  The reference signal generation unit 206 generates the first reference signal and / or the second reference signal based on the SRS setting information and the SRS transmission control information input from the reference signal control unit 2051, and transmits the first reference signal and / or the second reference signal to the wireless transmission unit 2015. Output.

  The upper layer 207 includes a medium access control (MAC) layer, a radio link control (RLC) layer, a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer, and a radio resource control (RRC: radio). (Resource Control) layer processing. The upper layer 207 integrates and controls the processing units of the lower layer, and therefore there is an interface between the upper layer 207 and the scheduling unit 205, antenna 209, transmission unit 201, and reception unit 203 (not shown) ).

  The upper layer 207 has a radio resource control unit 2071 (also referred to as a control unit). The radio resource control unit 2071 manages various setting information, system information, paging control, communication status management of the local station, mobility management such as handover, buffer status management, unicast and multicast bearer connection setting management The mobile station identifier (UEID) is managed.

  The transmission of the first reference signal and the transmission of the second reference signal are instructed from the base station apparatus 1 to the mobile station apparatus 3 using different downlink signals. That is, the first reference signal transmission instruction and the second reference signal transmission instruction are not necessarily performed at the same timing. Since the transmission timing of the first reference signal (A-SRS) is instructed from the base station apparatus 1, the mobile station apparatus 3 can dynamically transmit the reference signal for channel measurement. On the other hand, once the second reference signal (P-SRS) is set, the second reference signal (P-SRS) is transmitted to the base station apparatus 1 at a predetermined transmission period until the base station apparatus 1 performs resetting.

  FIG. 3A shows a mobile station apparatus 3 when transmission of the first reference signal (A-SRS) and transmission of the second reference signal (P-SRS) occur at the same timing in the first embodiment of the present invention. It is a flowchart which shows the process sequence of this transmission control. The mobile station device 3 determines whether transmission of the first reference signal and transmission of the second reference signal have occurred at the same timing (step S100). When the first reference signal and the second reference signal are generated at the same timing (step S100: YES), the mobile station device 3 uses the same component carrier (CC) for the first reference signal and the second reference signal. It is determined whether or not it is assigned (step S101). When the first reference signal and the second reference signal are assigned to the same CC (step S101: YES), the mobile station device 3 does not transmit (drops) the second reference signal, and does not transmit the second reference signal. The reference signal is transmitted (step S102).

  When the first reference signal and the second reference signal are allocated to different component carriers (step S101: NO), the mobile station device 3 transmits the first reference signal and the second reference signal. Transmission is performed simultaneously (step S103). When the transmission of the first reference signal and the transmission of the second reference signal do not occur at the same timing (step S100: NO), the mobile station device 3 uses the first reference signal and the second reference signal for each of them. It transmits to the base station apparatus 1 at timing (step S104). However, as an exception process, when the total transmission power of the first reference signal and the second reference signal generated at the same timing exceeds the maximum transmission power of the mobile station apparatus 3, the mobile station apparatus 3 The first reference signal is transmitted without transmitting the second reference signal even if the reference signal and the second reference signal are generated in different component carriers at the same timing.

  In the first embodiment, the first reference signal for uplink channel measurement transmitted at the timing set in the base station apparatus 1 and the uplink transmitted when a transmission request is notified from the base station apparatus 1 When the second reference signal for channel measurement is generated at the same timing, whether the mobile station apparatus 3 transmits the first reference signal and the second reference signal at the same time depending on whether the second reference signal is allocated to the same or different component carrier You can control whether or not.

  When the first reference signal and the second reference signal are generated in the same component carrier at the same timing, the channel measurement accuracy of the first reference signal and the second reference signal may deteriorate. More specifically, when the resources of the first reference signal and the second reference signal are allocated to the same component carrier in the same subframe, and both resources overlap, the first reference signal and the second reference signal Interfere with each other, and channel measurement accuracy in the base station apparatus 1 deteriorates. Therefore, if control is performed so that the first reference signal transmitted after the transmission request from the base station apparatus 1 is notified is transmitted with priority, the case where the channel measurement accuracy for the first reference signal deteriorates is avoided. be able to.

  Further, when the first reference signal and the second reference signal are generated in different component carriers, the resources of the first reference signal and the second reference signal do not overlap, and the channel measurement accuracy is not deteriorated. It is possible to control so that a plurality of reference signals are transmitted simultaneously at the same timing. By controlling whether to simultaneously transmit the first reference signal and the second reference signal depending on whether the resources of the first reference signal and the second reference signal are allocated to the same or different component carriers, It can be avoided by simple processing that both reference signals interfere with each other and the channel measurement accuracy of both reference signals in base station apparatus 1 deteriorates.

  FIG. 3B shows the mobile station apparatus 3 when the transmission of the first reference signal (A-SRS) and the transmission of the second reference signal (P-SRS) occur at the same timing in the first embodiment of the present invention. It is a flowchart which shows the process sequence of this transmission control. When the resources of the first reference signal and the second reference signal are allocated to the same component carrier, the channel measurement accuracy for the second reference signal is further determined by further determining whether or not both resources are overlapping. Can be improved.

  In FIG. 3B, it is determined whether or not P-SRS and A-SRS resources overlap between step S101 and step S102 of FIG. 3A (step S202). When it is determined that the P-SRS and A-SRS resources overlap (step S202: YES), the P-SRS is dropped and the A-SRS is transmitted (step S203). If it is determined that the P-SRS and A-SRS resources do not overlap (step S202: NO), the P-SRS and A-SRS are transmitted simultaneously (step S204). As a result, the opportunity to transmit the second reference signal can be further increased while avoiding interference between the first reference signal and the second reference signal. Channel measurement accuracy can be improved.

  Here, the transmission of the first reference signal and the transmission of the second reference signal occur at the same timing, which will be described with reference to FIG. One mobile station apparatus simultaneously arranges and transmits the first reference signal and the second reference signal to the 14th symbol (shaded portion) instructed to transmit the reference signal. It indicates that the transmission timing is consistent. The mobile station apparatus 3 can determine whether the transmission of the first reference signal and the transmission of the second reference signal occur at the same timing with the 14th symbol. The timing at which the first reference signal is transmitted may be set in advance so as to be transmitted in a predetermined subframe, or may be transmitted after a predetermined subframe after the physical downlink control channel is notified. However, it may be transmitted in accordance with the transmission cycle of the second reference signal.

  As described above, when transmission of the first reference signal and transmission of the second reference signal occur in different component carriers at the same timing, the transmission of the first reference signal and the second reference signal can be performed simultaneously. . Whether or not simultaneous transmission of the first reference signal and the second reference signal is performed depending on whether the first reference signal and the second reference signal are generated in the same component carrier when the first reference signal and the second reference signal are generated at the same timing. Can be determined.

  According to the present invention, the mobile station apparatus 3 transmits the first reference signal and the second reference signal depending on whether the first reference signal and the second reference signal are allocated to the same component carrier. It can be controlled whether or not they are performed simultaneously, and the first reference signal and the second reference signal can be efficiently transmitted to the base station apparatus 1.

<Second Embodiment>
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the second embodiment, the base station apparatus 1 includes a radio resource control signal including information instructing transmission on a physical uplink control channel and a physical including information instructing transmission of a first reference signal for channel measurement. The downlink control channel is transmitted to the mobile station device 3. The mobile station device 3 transmits uplink control information to the base station device 1 using the physical uplink control channel according to information instructing transmission on the physical uplink control channel included in the radio resource control signal, and physically When the downlink control channel includes information instructing transmission of the first reference signal, the first reference signal is transmitted to the base station apparatus 1, and transmission of the first reference signal and physical uplink are performed. When transmission on the control channel occurs at the same timing, transmission on the physical uplink control channel can be performed.

  Since the functional configuration of the device in the second embodiment is the same as that shown in the first embodiment, the description thereof is omitted here. The transmission on the physical uplink control channel whose transmission is periodically instructed by the radio resource control signal and the transmission of the first reference signal for channel measurement whose transmission is instructed aperiodically by the physical downlink control channel are: May occur at the same time. When the base station apparatus 1 is instructed to transmit different uplink signals using different downlink signals, the mobile station apparatus 3 sets the priority of the transmission signal based on information included in the uplink signal to be transmitted. Can perform efficient communication.

  FIG. 4 shows the mobile station apparatus 3 when the transmission of the first reference signal (A-SRS) and the transmission on the physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) occur at the same timing in the second embodiment of the present invention. It is a flowchart which shows the process sequence of transmission control. The mobile station device 3 determines whether transmission of the first reference signal and transmission on the physical uplink control channel have occurred at the same timing (step S300). When the transmission of the first reference signal and the transmission on the physical uplink control channel occur at the same timing (step S300: YES), the mobile station apparatus 3 uses the same component for which the first reference signal and the physical uplink control channel are the same. It is determined whether it is assigned to a carrier (CC) (step S301).

  When the first reference signal and the physical uplink control channel are assigned to the same CC (step S301: YES), the mobile station device 3 does not transmit (drops) the first reference signal and does not transmit the first reference signal. A link control channel is transmitted (step S302). Further, when the first reference signal and the physical uplink control channel are allocated to different component carriers (step S301: NO), the mobile station device 3 uses the transmission of the first reference signal and the physical uplink control channel. Are simultaneously transmitted (step S303). When the transmission of the first reference signal and the transmission on the physical uplink control channel do not occur at the same timing (step S300: NO), the mobile station device 3 uses the first reference signal and the physical uplink control channel respectively. (Step S304). However, as an exception process, when the sum of the transmission power of the first reference signal and the physical uplink control channel generated at the same timing exceeds the maximum transmission power of the mobile station apparatus 3, the mobile station apparatus 3 performs the first reference Even if the signal and the physical uplink control channel are generated in different component carriers at the same timing, the physical uplink control channel is transmitted without transmitting the first reference signal.

  When the transmission of the first reference signal and the transmission on the physical uplink control channel occur at the same timing, the mobile station apparatus 3 uses a multi-carrier transmission PAPR (Peak-to-Average Power Ratio). ) Is prioritized for transmission on the physical uplink control channel. Here, PAPR is a ratio between the peak power value and the average power value of the transmission signal. When a signal having a high PAPR is input to the amplifier, nonlinear distortion due to amplification occurs, and communication quality deteriorates. Further, if a high output back-off is provided from the maximum transmission power in order to avoid nonlinear distortion, the power efficiency is significantly reduced. In addition, when the transmission of the first reference signal and the transmission on the physical uplink control channel occur in different component carriers at the same timing, the communication quality of the uplink signal is not deteriorated, and therefore can be transmitted simultaneously.

  Thus, in the second embodiment, when transmission of the first reference signal and transmission on the physical uplink control channel occur at the same timing, the mobile station device 3 does not transmit the first reference signal. (Dropped) can be controlled to perform transmission on the physical uplink control channel. Also, the mobile station device 3 can determine whether or not simultaneous transmission is performed based on whether or not the transmission of the first reference signal and the transmission on the physical uplink control channel occur at the same timing.

<Second Modification of Fourth Embodiment>
Next, a second modification of the fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the second modification of the fourth embodiment, the base station apparatus 1 transmits a signal including information that permits simultaneous transmission through a plurality of uplink channels to the mobile station apparatus 3. The mobile station apparatus 3 causes the transmission of the first reference signal, the transmission of the second reference signal, and the transmission on the physical uplink control channel to occur at the same timing according to the information permitting simultaneous transmission through a plurality of uplink channels. In this case, transmission of the first reference signal and transmission on the physical uplink control channel can be performed simultaneously.

  FIG. 8 shows the transmission of the first reference signal (A-SRS), the transmission of the second reference signal (P-SRS), and the physical uplink control channel in the second modification of the fourth embodiment of the present invention. It is the flowchart which showed the process sequence of the transmission control of the mobile station apparatus 3 when transmission by (PUCCH) occurs at the same timing. The mobile station device 3 determines whether transmission of the first reference signal, transmission of the second reference signal, and transmission on the physical uplink control channel have occurred at the same timing (step S700). When the transmission of the first reference signal, the transmission of the second reference signal, and the transmission on the physical uplink control channel occur at the same timing (step S700: YES), the mobile station apparatus 3 transmits from the base station apparatus 1. It is determined whether the downlink signal includes information that permits simultaneous transmission of a plurality of uplink channels (step S701). When the downlink signal includes information that permits simultaneous transmission through a plurality of uplink channels (step S701: YES), the mobile station device 3 uses the same radio signal for the first reference signal and the second reference signal. It is determined whether or not the resource is arranged using the resource (step S702).

When the first reference signal and the second reference signal are arranged using different radio resources (step S702: NO), the mobile station apparatus 3 uses the first reference signal, the second reference signal, and the physical uplink. The link control channel is transmitted simultaneously (step S704).

  When the simultaneous transmission control information includes information that simultaneous transmission through a plurality of uplink channels is not permitted (step S701: NO), the mobile station device 3 transmits the first reference signal and the second reference signal. Without (dropping), the physical uplink control channel is transmitted (step S705). When the transmission of the first reference signal, the transmission of the second reference signal, and the transmission on the physical uplink control channel do not occur at the same timing (step S700: NO), the mobile station apparatus 3 performs the first transmission at each timing. 1 reference signal, 2nd reference signal, and a physical uplink control channel are transmitted (step S706). However, as exception processing, when the sum of the transmission power of the first reference signal, the second reference signal, and the physical uplink control channel generated at the same timing exceeds the maximum transmission power of the mobile station apparatus, the mobile station apparatus 3 The physical uplink control channel is transmitted without transmitting the first reference signal and the second reference signal even if simultaneous transmission through a plurality of uplink channels is permitted.

  By setting whether or not the base station apparatus 1 permits simultaneous transmission through a plurality of uplink channels, the mobile station apparatus 3 transmits the reference signal for channel measurement and the transmission on the physical uplink control channel at the same timing. The processing when it occurs in can be determined.

  FIG. 9 shows an example of transmission timings of the first reference signal (A-SRS), the second reference signal (P-SRS), and the physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) in the fourth embodiment of the present invention.

Simultaneous transmission on the control channel. If the transmission of the first reference signal, the transmission of the second reference signal, and the transmission on the physical uplink control channel occur in the same component carrier, the mobile station apparatus 3 will receive the first reference signal and the second reference signal If the reference signal and the physical uplink control channel are transmitted at the same time, the communication quality is deteriorated. In the fourth embodiment of the present invention, the mobile station apparatus 3 does not transmit (drops) the first reference signal and the second reference signal in order to suppress an increase in PAPR due to multicarrier transmission. An uplink control channel is transmitted.

  As in subframes # 3, # 6, and # 18, transmission of any two signals is the same timing among transmission of the first reference signal, transmission of the second reference signal, and transmission on the physical uplink control channel. If the transmission of each signal occurs in a different component carrier, the mobile station apparatus 3 transmits each signal simultaneously.
