Abstract
A disclosed transmission device includes a frequency scheduling unit configured to allocate a resource block divided from a system bandwidth into blocks of consecutive frequency subcarriers or distributed-type resource blocks including discretely-distributed frequency subcarriers in a system bandwidth and divided from the resource block, assign locations and identification numbers of the distributed-type resource blocks divided by a predetermined division number with respect to each resource block, and determine the distributed-type resource blocks to be allocated to a user based on the assigned locations of the distributed-type resource blocks; a mapping unit configured to allocate transmission data to either the resource block or distributed-type resource blocks in accordance with the allocation; and a control information generating unit configured to generate control information with respect to a mobile station to which either the resource block or the distributed-type resource blocks are allocated based on the identification numbers.
