A wireless communication system is provided in which a plurality of MTC devices can connect to a base station device efficiently. Each of MTC devices in group A that transmits data to the base station device using a predetermined application format is allocated first radio resource common in group A. The MTC device transmits an access request signal to the base station device using the first radio resource. The base station device receives the request signal from the MTC device. The base station device allocates second radio resource common in group A to the MTC device. The MTC device transmits data to the base station device using the second radio resource.

Wireless communication system

A mobile station is provided to which multimedia broadcast/multicast service can be applied also during carrier aggregation. A mobile station communicates with a base station by carrier aggregation using a plurality of component carriers having different frequency bands. The mobile station receives contents in MBMS from the base station using at least two component carriers of a plurality of component carriers. The mobile station causes a display to display the received contents.

Mobile station, base station, communication system, display control method, communication control method, and program

In a wireless communication system, a terminal device and a base station device communicate using frequency bands selected from among a plurality of frequency bands. The base station device selects a frequency band used for a downlink and a frequency band used for an uplink as frequency bands used for communication with the terminal device from among the plurality of frequency bands, selects an association between the frequency band used for the downlink and the frequency band used for the uplink among the selected frequency bands, and transmits information indicating the selected frequency bands and information indicating the association containing identification information of the association using a signal specific to the terminal device.

According to a control method of a wireless communication system in which wireless communication between a base station () and a communication terminal () is carried out by use of a plurality of discontinuous frequency bands, in a case where an onlyUL-CC having no existing corresponding DL-CC is present (S), a communication quality of a DL-CC in a frequency band including the onlyUL-CC is measured as a communication quality of a DL-CC corresponding to the onlyUL-CC (S) for the purpose of accurate control of the onlyUL-CC.

A CA decision part selects a component carrier to be used for communication with a terminal apparatus from component carriers used for communication by a plurality of base station apparatuses. A CA set notification part notifies a sub-base station apparatus of carrier aggregation information indicating the component carrier selected by the CA decision part. A transmission unit of a main base station apparatus allocates a signal, which is obtained by modulating a part of data to be transmitted to the terminal apparatus, on a first component carrier selected by the CA decision part, and transmits the signal. A transmission unit of the sub-base station apparatus allocates a signal, which is obtained by modulating a part of the data to be transmitted to the terminal apparatus, on a second component carrier indicated by notified carrier aggregation information, and transmits the signal. A reception unit of the terminal apparatus receives the signal from the main base station apparatus using the first component carrier and the signal from the sub-base station apparatus using the second component carrier. A wireless processing part integrates the signals received by the reception unit.

Wireless communication system, base station apparatus, communication apparatus, and communication control program

A wireless communication apparatus includes: a receiving unit that receives a signal indicating a frequency band having the highest priority of selection among a plurality of frequency bands; and a transmitting unit that transmits data in parallel, using the frequency band having the highest priority of selection and a frequency band having a priority of selection lower than that of the frequency band having the highest priority of selection.

Wireless communication system, wireless communication apparatus, and wireless communication method

A communication system includes a reception device and at least one transmission device. The transmission device includes: a signal transmission unit which transmits at least one unicast signals and a multicast signal to the reception device. The reception device includes: a plurality of signal reception units which receive at least one the unicast signals and the multicast signal from the transmission device; a first control unit which receives the unicast signals from the transmission device using all of the plurality of signal reception units when only the unicast signals are received; and a second control unit which receives the unicast signals from the transmission device using some of the plurality of signal reception units, and simultaneously receives the multicast signal from the transmission device using another signal reception unit of the plurality of signal reception units, when the unicast signals and the multicast signal are received.

Communication system, reception device, and communication method

A transmitter communicating with a receiver, the transmitter including: a first hopping sequence generation unit which generates a hopping sequence whose hopping subcarrier interval is less than or equal to a predetermined threshold value based on a cell ID; a first reference signal pattern generation unit which generates a reference signal pattern based on a reference signal basic pattern including a predetermined known signal sequence and the hopping sequence generated by the first hopping sequence generation unit; an arrangement unit which arranges the reference signal and a data symbol in a predetermined position within the symbol, based on the reference signal pattern generated by the first reference signal pattern generation unit; and a signal transmission unit which transmits the symbol having the reference signal and the data symbol arranged by the arrangement unit to the receiver.

Communication system, transmitter, receiver and communication method

A communication system includes a unicast base station device, a multicast base station device, and a mobile station device. Before receiving information concerning a multicast service, the mobile station device transmits, to a position register server, identification information identifying a reception area in which a multicast service is provided. When receiving incoming call information indicating that information concerning a unicast service has been received, the multicast base station device transmits the incoming call information to the mobile station device. The mobile station device receives the incoming call information even while receiving the information concerning the multicast service.

Communication system, base station device, mobile station device, and communication method

Radio signals from a base station are received by an antenna, and amplified, filtered, frequency converted and detected in a radio section, to thereby obtain baseband signals. A path search section searches the baseband signals, and detects a peak position in each path. Based on the detected timing relations, a code generator in a DLL section corresponding to each path is operated, to thereby obtain a demodulated output. A buffer section in a timing adjusting section fetches the demodulated output and trues up the phases therein, and the demodulated signals whose phases have been trued up are added in the RAKE synthesis circuit.
