Radio Communication Apparatus and Mcs Determination Method
First Claim
1. A radio communication apparatus comprising:
- a coding section that codes transmission data at a changeable coding rate;
a modulation section that performs modulation using one of a plurality of modulation schemes; and
a control section that tentatively determines an MCS level in accordance with channel quality, compares the tentatively determined MCS level with an MCS level used in previous control, determines the tentatively determined MCS level when a level difference is within the predetermined fluctuation range or determines an MCS level having a level difference with respect to the MCS level used in previous control limited within the fluctuation range when the level difference exceeds the fluctuation range, and controls the coding section and the modulation section so as to have the determined MCS level.

Abstract
A radio communication apparatus is disclosed that is capable of improving throughput even when accuracy of channel quality estimation is low and variation of channel quality estimation values is substantial. In this apparatus, MCS(SIR) acquisition section (201) acquires from MCS table (202) an MCS level (MCS(SIR)) corresponding to an SIR value. Comparison section (204) compares the acquired MCS level with the MCS level (MCS (p)) used in pervious control and stored in MCS (p) storage section (203). MCS determination section (205) determines an MCS level that has a predetermined level difference with respect the MCS (p) based on the comparison result. MCS determination section (205) acquires the modulation scheme and coding rate corresponding to the determined MCS level from MCS table (202) and controls rate matching section (103) and modulation section (105).
