- the system 1 has a configuration in which the base station controller 3 bundles a plurality of base stations 4a and 4b on the network side. As a result, in the system 1, it is possible to establish a radio link between a plurality of base stations 4a and 4b to one terminal 2 called soft handover.
- the mobile communication terminal 2 is a UE (User Equipment)
- the base station controller 3 is an RNC (Radio Radio). Network Controller)
- the base stations 4a and 4b may be called Node-B.
- a specific base station may be responsible for scheduling data communication for a certain terminal.

- a channel in a radio section between base stations 4 a and 4 b of the W—CDMA system and terminal 2 is shown. 1 shows the configuration.
- the channels in this figure are merely examples, and the present invention is not limited to these.
- a plurality of control channels are synergized with one channel. First, the downlink channel from the base stations 4a and 4b to the terminal 2 will be described.

- BCH Broadcast channel
- P- CCPCH Primary- Common Control physical Channe ⁇ force s.
- SACCH Downlink Scheduling Assignment Control Channel
- Z failure DL- ACK / NA CK- CCH Downlink Ack / Nack Control Channel
- FACH Forward Access Channel
- UL Uplink Scheduling Information Control Channel
- SR CH Random Access Channel
- DPCH Dedicated Physical channel

- FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B are diagrams for explaining a communication mode in wireless multiplex data mode communication between a terminal and a base station in the mobile communication system according to the first embodiment.
- the base station (Node-B) 4a, 4b transmits an allowable rate to the terminal (UE) 2 in advance.
- the specification is made.
- the UE transmits the data to No'de-B at an arbitrary time within the range of the permissible rate.
- Node-B Upon receiving the data from U E, Node-B sends a response signal (ACK / NACK) to UE.
- ACK / NACK response signal
- the autonomous mode it is not always necessary to specify the permissible rate in advance for each packet transmission, and basically, only one round trip communication process consisting of a data transmission and a response is required. For this reason, the autonomous mode has the advantage that signaling waste is small and the UE can freely transmit data overnight when it wants to transmit, thereby reducing delay.
- the overnight transmission process in the scheduling mode first, as shown in FIG. 3B, information such as the UE buffer status is transmitted from UE to Node-B.
- Node-B Upon receiving the information, Node-B performs scheduling of uplink packets with a plurality of UEs, and determines a time (subframe) and a transmission rate at which transmission is permitted to a UE to be allowed to transmit data.
- Assign. U E transmits the packet to Node-B according to the assignment and receives a response signal from Node-B.
- the advantage of the scheduling mode is that there is no need to set an extra noise rise margin because there is no overnight transmission from the UE that the scheduler does not assign.
- the disadvantage is that at least two round-trip communication processes, ie, the communication process required for scheduling and the transmission process of the data itself, are required, which inevitably causes a delay.
- signaling must be performed to notify Node-B of the presence or absence of UE transmission data in advance, so the efficiency becomes poor when the transmission data capacity is small relative to the number of signalings. ing.
- the base station In the autonomous mode, there is no specification of the transmission timing from the base station, and the terminal autonomously determines the transmission timing.
- the base station specifies the transmission timing for the terminal, and the terminal transmits data according to the transmission timing.
- the data rate may be specified by the base station. For example, in the autonomous mode, the base station specifies the transmission data rate in the overnight transmission to the terminal, but in the scheduling mode, the base station specifies the transmission timing and the transmission data rate to the terminal. In some cases, data transmission from the terminal is controlled.
- FIG. 4 is a diagram explaining a threshold (threshold) of a transmission data buffer as a reference for switching the communication mode of the mobile communication terminal according to the first embodiment.
- the mobile communication terminal 2 operates in the autonomous mode in a state where the transmission data is accumulated by the capacity equal to or less than the threshold of the transmission data buffer, and the transmission data having the capacity exceeding the threshold is accumulated. Then, it shifts to the scheduling mode and operates.
- terminal 2 switches between the autonomous mode and the scheduling mode based on the threshold for the amount of transmission data stored in the transmission data buffer.
- the determination of the threshold will be described later.
- FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an allowable margin for an amount of interference (hereinafter, referred to as noise rise) caused by each factor in an uplink signal to a base station according to the first embodiment.
- noise rise an amount of interference
- the received coded signal is allowed to interfere to some extent, but if the noise rise exceeds the permissible limit, the amount of interference will be larger than the signal even if despreading, and the signal Demodulation cannot be performed correctly.
- one of the noise rises at the base station end Noise rise due to transmission in ringing mode and autonomous mode can be controlled within the margin for scheduling mode and autonomous mode magazine by appropriately switching these transmission modes in uplink packet communication. .
- noise rise caused by other than scheduling mode and autonomous mode cannot be controlled within the allowable margin in uplink packet communication.
- Causes of such interference include, for example, own cell interference approximated by the sum of desired signal powers from terminals in the own cell, and interference from extra signals from terminals in covereries of other base stations. Other cell interference, and thermal noise generated by the receiver in the base station.
- Fig. 6 shows an example of the distribution of the base station's noise margin (allowable interference amount) between the autonomous mode and the scheduling mode when multiple terminals use uplink packet communication in a cell. It is.
- the illustrated example shows a case where the number of terminals accommodated in a cell is larger than that in the case of FIG. 8 described later.
- the base station according to Embodiment 1 has a certain range of margin determined by base station controller 3 in consideration of the QoS parameters such as delay, as shown in FIG. It is set as a controllable noise margin.
- a controllable noise margin When an allowable margin for noise rise due to the autonomous mode is set in the noise rise magazine, a large noise margin may be set for each terminal in the cell.
- the base station schedules as shown in Fig. 6 (To). It is possible to secure a large allowable margin '(hatched portion) for noise rise caused by the mode. In other words, if the number of terminals that communicate in the cell in the scheduling mode is large, the permissible margin per terminal for noise rise due to the autonomous mode must be reduced as much as possible.
- Fig. 6 (b) in order to minimize the allowable margin per terminal for noise rise caused by autonomous mode, the noise itself caused by autonomous mode must be reduced. In other words, control may be performed so that communication in the autonomous mode is executed as a low data rate.
- the threshold for communication mode switching determination of the transmission data buffer in each terminal is set low, and the transmission data It is desirable to switch from the autonomous mode to the scheduling mode when the amount exceeds the range at low data rate.
- Fig. 8 consider the case where the number of terminals using uplink packet communication in a cell is small (7 in Fig. 6 but 2 in Fig. 8). . In this case, even if the noise margin per terminal is set large in the base station, as shown in Fig. 8 (a), the allowable margin for noise rise due to the scheduling mode (inclined) (The part with a line) can be sufficiently secured.
- the threshold for the communication mode switching judgment of the transmission data buffer in each terminal is set high.
- a high data rate may be allowed in the autonomous mode so that a large amount of data can be handled.
- the traffic situation in the communication between the terminal and the base station such as the number of terminals operating in the scheduling mode in the cell and its operating state, the schedule and operating state in the autonomous mode, etc. It can be seen that it is desirable to appropriately change the above-mentioned threshold of the transmission buffer in order to realize high-quality communication with little interference.
