Abstract
A radio transmitter includes an orthogonal transformation unit for carrying out an orthogonal transformation on pilot signals having orthogonal relation to each other between transmission antennas and a pilot multiplexing unit multiplexing the pilot signals and transmission data, and a radio receiver includes a channel estimation unit obtaining a channel estimate of a directive multibeam for each of reception antennas, an inverse transformation unit carrying out an inverse transformation of the orthogonal transformation on the obtained channel estimate and a received signal processing unit selectively conducting first processing based on the beam channel estimate in the first mode or second processing based on the channel estimate obtained by the inverse transformation unit in the second mode. This commonizes a common pilot for MIMO (second mode) and individual pilots for AAA (first mode), thus realizing the coexistence of MIMO and AAA without leading to a reduction of throughput.
