Patent Images
1. A transmission rate control apparatus comprising:
- receiving means for receiving a received quality measured at a communication terminal; and
rate changing means for changing a transmission rate to said communication terminal based on the received quality, wherein said rate changing means decreases the transmission rate when the received quality at a side of said communication terminal deteriorates rapidly.

Abstract
The communication terminal apparatus measures reception quality and reports the measurement result to the base station apparatus, and the base station apparatus switches the transmission rate based on the reported result of the reception quality. In this way, the transmission rate is switched starting at the point in time at which the reception quality of the communication terminal apparatus deteriorates. Furthermore, the transmission rate is switched so that the amount of interference with others is within the allowable range according to the channel condition between the communication terminal apparatus and base station apparatus.
