- the FFT units 187-1 to 187-p are applied to the frequency domain signal by the FFT (Fast Fourier Transform). Conversion is performed, and a frequency spectrum for each codeword is output.
- an OFDM reception unit 172a has one down-conversion unit 191 and a filter.
- the frequency component which is not used by the unit 192 is removed, the A / D conversion unit 193 performs A / D conversion, the CP removal unit 194 performs CP removal, and the FFT unit 195 performs conversion to a frequency domain signal. It is good also as a structure.
- the FFT size of the FFT unit 195 is the number of points that is twice the number of code words as compared to the case of the configuration shown in FIG.
- the codeword and the frequency band to be used correspond one-to-one, so control is performed in ACK / NAK control. There is an effect that the signal can be reduced.
- the coding rate and the modulation method can be adaptively determined according to the channel gain of the frequency band to be used. As a result, the frequency utilization efficiency can be improved.

第1の実施形態では、シングルキャリアSU-MIMOにおいて、効率的な送信方法および受信方法について説明する。また、本明細書では、シングルキャリア伝送を時間領域で信号を生成する伝送方式と定義する。従って、第1の実施形態では、DFT-S-OFDMを例に説明を行なうが、Clustered DFT-S-OFDM等のシングルキャリアベースの送信方法でも本発明の適用が可能である。
第1の実施形態では、誤り訂正符号化部が1つの場合を示したが、LTEにおける下りリンクでは、送信機は、複数の誤り訂正符号化部を具備し、複数の符号語(コードワード)が生成される。これは、受信機においてSIC(Successive Interference Cancellation)によるMIMO分離を行なうためと、コードワード毎に再送を要求することによって、余計な再送を減らすためである。
第3の実施形態では、コードワード数に応じて使用する周波数帯の数を決定する、効率的な送信方および受信方法について説明する。本明細書では、コードワードとは、1回の伝送機会に含まれる、独立に誤り訂正符号化を行なうブロックの数とする。また、シングルキャリア伝送とは、時間領域で信号を生成する伝送方式と定義する。以下、コードワード数と使用する周波数帯の数を等しくして、コードワードと使用する周波数帯が、1対1に対応する場合について、具体例をあげて説明する。
