Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed are a wireless base station, wireless terminal, and channel signal formation method that can prevent the quality of downstream assignment control data from degrading, while preventing the number of blind determinations from increasing on the wireless terminal on the receiving side of the downstream control channel signal. In a base station ( 100 ), a control unit ( 101 ) and a data size regulation unit ( 103 ) control the data size of downstream assignment control data and upstream assignment control data contained in the PDCCH signal based on the communication format used between the base station ( 100 ) and a terminal ( 200 ), the number of antennas (M) (nonnegative number) on the base station ( 100 ), the number of antennas (N) (nonnegative number) on the terminal ( 200 ), the bandwidth of the downstream band, and the bandwidth of the upstream band. Specifically, the control unit ( 101 ) determines it is unnecessary to adjust the aforementioned data size when the selected communication format is first established between multiple antennas and when where there are multiple for one of M and N and only one for the other.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A communication apparatus communicating with a terminal, the communication apparatus comprising: a generating section, including a processor, configured to generate first control information including downlink resource assignment information, and to generate second control information including uplink resource assignment information; and a size control section configured to perform a size adjustment for control information, wherein, when at least one…
