Abstract

To effectively control information on allocation of a radio resource for each mobile station, improve the frequency use efficiency of the entire communication system, and effectively execute base station/mobile station control, a mobile station holds a Chunk Table (TB) in advance and successively receives the SCSCH (Shared Control Signaling Channel) of each predetermined available Chunk from the head of a radio frame. If the SCSCH has a mobile station identifier of the mobile station assigned, the mobile station receives an SDCH (Shared Data Channel) of the corresponding RB (Resource Block) and acquires a CID (Chunk ID). Here, user data may be simultaneously contained in the SDCH. The mobile station registers the acquired CID in the Chunk Table. Moreover, the base station side also has the Chunk Table corresponding to each mobile station and manages whether a CID has been allocated for each mobile station.

Claims

1. A base station device used in a mobile communication system, comprising:

a processor configured to assign for a mobile station device one or more groups of physical positions of radio resources each made up of a frequency component corresponding to one or more sub-carriers and a time component corresponding to one or more OFDM symbols to which mobile station identifier fields are mapped within shared control information, where the shared control information is used to assign a resource used at the time of reception from or transmission to the base station device by the mobile station device,

the base station device allocating to the mobile station device a first mobile station identifier for identifying the mobile station device among one or more mobile station devices having the groups of physical positions of mobile station identifier fields assigned.

2. The base station device as defined in claim 1, wherein a plurality of the groups of physical positions are assigned for the mobile station device.

3. The base station device as defined in claim 2, wherein one or more different combinations of mobile station devices are assigned for each of the plurality of groups of physical positions, and wherein the first mobile station identifier for identifying the mobile station device is allocated for each of the groups of physical-positions.

4. The base station device as defined in claim 3, wherein each of the first mobile station identifier allocated to the mobile station device for each of the groups of physical-positions is the same for the plurality of groups of physical-positions.

5. The base station device as defined in claim 1, wherein the first mobile station identifier is included in shared control information and is transmitted to the mobile station device.

6. The base station device as defined in claim 5, wherein information assigning presence or absence of additional shared control information is included in the shared control information for transmission.

7. The base station device as defined in claim 6, wherein a second mobile station identifier unique to the mobile station device at least within the base station device or a portion thereof is included in the additional shared control information and is transmitted to the mobile station device.

8. The base station device as defined in claim 1, wherein each group of physical positions corresponds to an assigned a resource used at the time of reception from the base station device by the mobile station device.

9. The base station device as defined in claim 1, wherein each group of physical positions corresponds to an assigned a resource used at the time of transmission to the base station device by the mobile station device.

10. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program which when executed by a computer implements functions of the base station device as defined in claim 1.

11. A mobile station device used in a mobile communication system,

the mobile station device receiving a first mobile station identifier for identifying the mobile station device among one or more mobile station devices having at least one or more assigned groups of physical positions of radio resources each made up of a frequency component corresponding to one or more sub-carriers and a time component corresponding to one or more OFDM symbols to which mobile station identifier fields are mapped—

likely to be used by the mobile station device assigned by a base station device among groups of physical positions to which mobile station identifier fields are mapped within shared control information, where the shared control information is used to assign a resource used at the time of reception from or transmission to the base station device by the mobile station device.

12. The mobile station device as defined in claim 11, wherein the mobile station device has one or more of the groups of physical-positions assigned by the base station device and wherein the first mobile station identifier for identifying the mobile station device for each of the groups of physical-positions is allocated for each of the plurality of the groups of physical-positions.

13. The mobile station device as defined in claim 12, wherein the first mobile station identifier allocated for each of the plurality of groups of physical-positions is the same for the plurality of groups of physical positions.

14. The mobile station device as defined in claim 11, wherein presence or absence of additional shared control information is determined by receiving information assigning presence or absence of the additional shared control information included in the shared control information.

15. The mobile station device as defined in claim 14, wherein a resource block group including data to the mobile station device is determined with a second mobile station identifier unique to the mobile station device at least within the base station device or a portion thereof included in the additional shared control information.

16. The mobile station device as defined in claim 11, wherein the mobile station identifier field assigns a resource used at the time of reception from the base station device by the mobile station device.

17. The mobile station device as defined in claim 11, wherein the mobile station identifier field assigns a resource used at the time of transmission to the base station device by the mobile station device.

18. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program which when executed by a computer implements the functions of the mobile station device as defined in claim 11.

19. A mobile station identifier allocation method used in a mobile communication system, wherein

a base station device assigns for a mobile station device one or more groups of physical-positions of radio resources each made up of a frequency component corresponding to one or more sub-carriers and a time component corresponding to one or more OFDM symbols to which mobile station identifier fields are mapped within shared control information likely to be used by the mobile station device, and wherein

the base station device allocates to the mobile station device a first mobile station identifier for identifying the mobile station device among one or more mobile station devices having the groups of physical positions of mobile station identifier fields assigned.
