Both a wireless terminal apparatus and wireless base station apparatus are provided that can, in an operation of encoding the control signals of the upstream link transmitted from the multiple terminal stations while encoding with regard to each of the terminal stations, increase a number of the terminal stations to which different codes are respectively assigned. A wireless terminal apparatus includes: an encoding information receiving portion receiving encoding information which is used at the wireless terminal apparatus from the base station; a phase-shifting unit which conducts a phase-shifting operation on a predetermined first code based on the encoding information; a code selection unit which, based on the received encoding information, selects a second code from multiple codes orthogonally crossing each other; and a control signal encoding portion which conducts an encoding operation on the control signal that is going to be transmitted to the base station by using both the first code on which the phase-shifting operation has been conducted and the second code.

A radio base station apparatus of the invention includes a scramble code-generating part that generates a different scramble code for each sector, at least for adjacent sectors, and a scrambling part that uses a scramble code generated by said scramble code-generating part to scramble a scrambling-target portion in said downlink sub-frame. This contributes to increasing extraction precision when extracting a desired signal from a signal that was affected by interference between/among sectors.
