A cellular radio communication system, a cellular radio communication method and a rake reception method for raising the efficiency of a baseband, and increasing the freedom of the structure of the radio base station. A cellular radio communication system comprises a baseband and first to Nth transmitter-receicvers connected by a transmission line. The baseband is provided with a modulator for producing, by a digital process, modulation signals to be sent from the first to Nth transmitter-receivers, and a demodulator for demodulating digital modulation signals received and analog-to-digital converted by the first to Nth transmitter-receivers. The transmitter-receiver is provided with a digital-to-analog converter for converting a digital modulation signal to a modulation signal to be sent, and an analog-to-digital converter for converting a received modulation signal to a digital modulation signal.

Cellular radio communication system cellular radio communication method and rake reception method

To obtain a communication method which makes it possible to perform continuously communication through roadside antennas alternately arranged for a time sharing operation. Roadside antennas are arranged so that communication ranges are suitably overlapped for making the time sharing operation possible, and an on-vehicle device searches a communication frame from an adjacent next antenna during the communication with one of the roadside antennas at the overlapping point, and in the case where an FCMS can continuously be received, a switching from the communicating antenna to the adjacent antenna is instantaneously performed to make it possible to continue the communications between the roadside devices and the on-vehicle device.
