Definitions
- the present invention relates to a wireless communication device and a wireless communication method.
- next-generation mobile communication systems such as the fourth generation
- a data rate exceeding 100 Mbps is required even during high-speed movement.
- various wireless communications using a bandwidth of about 100 MHz are being studied.
- the multi-carrier transmission system represented by the OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) system is a transmission system for next-generation mobile communication systems from the viewpoint of adaptability to frequency selective fusing environments and frequency utilization efficiency. As seen as promising!
- Feedback information such as CSI or modulation parameters for each (segment) is transmitted. For this reason, as the number of subcarriers (segments) increases, the amount of data required for feedback increases and the overhead of feedback information increases.
- the transmission path characteristics change over time.
- the amount of time variation is proportional to the moving speed and carrier frequency. If the amount of time fluctuation of the transmission path characteristics increases, the error in the line condition between when the line condition is estimated and when transmission is performed according to the modulation parameter determined based on the feedback information increases. As a result, reception characteristics deteriorate and throughput decreases.
- the CSI feedback period is reduced as the amount of time fluctuation of the transmission path characteristics increases. It is necessary to make it easier (that is, to notify CSI frequently). For this reason, as the moving speed of the mobile station increases, the amount of feedback information transmitted increases.
- the moving speed of the mobile station that controls the modulation parameter for each subcarrier is limited to a low speed (for example, 3 kmZh), and a speed higher than that.
- a low speed for example, 3 kmZh
- a speed higher than that for mobile stations that move in the above manner, there is a technique of switching to control common to all subcarriers rather than control for each subcarrier (segment) (see Non-Patent Document 1, for example).
- a mobile station that moves slower than the maximum moving speed has a technique for reducing the data amount of feedback information by transmitting CSI at a cycle that is an integral multiple of the minimum feedback cycle (eg, non-patent document). 2 and 3).
- feedback information transmitted at each timing always includes CSI of all subcarriers (segments).

- CSI or modulation parameters of some subcarriers or some segments are transmitted in the first feedback period, and CSI or modulation parameters of all subcarriers or all segments are greater than the first feedback period.

- the threshold value 2 may also be used as a frame allocation threshold value.
- ⁇ Setting example 1> Set the minimum received SNR value or minimum received power value as the frame allocation threshold.
- the minimum received SNR value (minimum received power value) is a value indicating that communication is not possible at an SNR value (power value) below that value. Therefore, even if the CSI of the subcarrier below this minimum received SNR value (minimum received power value) is fed back, the subcarrier cannot be used for data transmission.
- a selection threshold value corresponding to a modulation method having the lowest modulation level (that is, the most robust modulation method) among a plurality of selectable modulation methods is set as a frame allocation threshold value.
- all subcarriers below the selection threshold corresponding to the most robust modulation scheme are transmitted using the most robust modulation scheme, so CSI is frequently used. This is because there is no need to provide feedback.
- the frame allocation threshold is set according to the time fluctuation rate of the value that becomes CSI (for example, SNR value). For example, the time-varying speed of the SNR value occurs as the mobile station moves or the surrounding objects move. Also, the higher the moving speed of the mobile station, the shorter the CSI feedback cycle. Furthermore, in the present invention, as described above, the smaller the SNR value, the shorter the feedback period. Also, feedback cannot be made with a period shorter than the shortest feedback period allowed in the communication system. Therefore, in order not to transmit a CSI frame that results in a feedback period lower than the shortest feedback period, a frame allocation threshold is set according to the time fluctuation rate of the SNR value.
- a frame allocation threshold is set according to the data transmission rate. For example, in a communication system in which a plurality of subcarriers are assigned to a plurality of mobile stations as in an OFDMA system, a mobile station with a high data transmission rate is allocated many subcarriers, and a mobile with a low data transmission rate is assigned. The station has few subcarriers and cannot be assigned power. Therefore, CSI feeds the mobile station with a high data transmission rate by setting the frame allocation threshold low and setting the data transmission rate low and the frame allocation threshold high for the mobile station. The number of subcarriers to be knocked can be controlled.

- the CSI processing unit 38 increases the threshold for the SNR value when the time fluctuation amount of the transmission line response is large in order to allocate the CSI frame that matches the time fluctuation amount, and the time fluctuation amount of the transmission line response is reduced.

That is, the radio communication apparatus shown in FIG. 2 determines the modulation parameter for each subcarrier (segment) based on the quality level, and transmits the modulation parameter in the same manner as the CSI transmission described above.
- the wireless communication apparatus may be configured to perform encoding, modulation, and transmission power control according to the modulation parameter received.
- the CSI frame type is explained as two types. It is also possible to set a plurality of thresholds and set the number of CSI frame types to three or more! /.
- a segment may also be referred to as a resource block, a subchannel, a subcarrier block, a subband, or a chunk.
- the radio communication terminal device may be referred to as UE, the radio communication base station device as Node B, and the subcarrier as a tone.
- Each functional block used in the description of the above embodiment is typically realized as an LSI which is an integrated circuit. These may be individually made into one chip, or may be made into one chip to include some or all of them.
- the method of circuit integration is not limited to LSI's, and implementation using dedicated circuitry or general purpose processors is also possible. It is also possible to use a field programmable gate array (FPGA) that can be programmed after LSI manufacture and a reconfigurable processor that can reconfigure the connection and settings of circuit cells inside the LSI.
- FPGA field programmable gate array
- the present invention is suitable for a radio communication base station apparatus and a radio communication terminal apparatus used in a mobile communication system.
