WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, WIRELESS BASE STATION, METHOD OF CONTROLLING TRANSMISSION OF COMMON PILOT SIGNAL IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, AND PROGRAM
First Claim
1. A wireless communication system comprising a wireless base station that transmits a common pilot signal and a mobile terminal that receives the common pilot signal transmitted from the wireless base station,wherein the mobile terminal measures reception quality of the signal transmitted from the wireless base station and transmits the measured reception quality to the wireless base station, andthe wireless base station determines whether an individual channel or a common control channel is used to transmit the common pilot signal based on a pilot pattern of the common pilot signal, and if the wireless base station determines that the common pilot signal is transmitted by using the individual channel, the wireless base station sets a transmission density of the common pilot signal according to the reception quality, while if the wireless base station determines that the common pilot signal is transmitted by using the common control channel, the wireless base station sets the transmission density of the common pilot signal such that it is higher than that in a transmission band of the individual channel.

Abstract
In a wireless communication system that includes wireless base station (101) that transmits a common pilot signal and mobile terminal (102) that receives the common pilot signal transmitted from wireless base station, mobile terminal (102) measures reception quality of the signal transmitted from wireless base station (101) and transmits the measured signal reception quality information to wireless base station (101), and wireless base station (101) determines whether an individual channel or a common control channel is used to transmit the common pilot signal based on the pilot pattern of the common pilot signal, and if the wireless base station determines that the common pilot signal is transmitted by using the individual channel, the wireless base station sets the transmission density of the common pilot signal according to the reception quality of the signal, while if the wireless base station determines that the common pilot signal is transmitted by using the common control channel, the wireless base station sets the transmission density of the common pilot signal such that it is higher than that in the transmission band of the individual channel.
