RADIO TRANSMISSION DEVICE AND RADIO TRANSMISSION METHOD
First Claim
1. A radio communication method comprising:
- receiving an acknowledgement or non-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) signal that is spread with an orthogonal sequence, which is selected from a plurality of orthogonal sequences, the plurality of orthogonal sequences including more orthogonal sequences that render two values respectively corresponding to Nth symbol and Mth symbol of an ACK/NACK signal transmission slot in phase, than orthogonal sequence(s) that render said two values in opposite phases from each other;
despreading, with said orthogonal sequence, the spread ACK/NACK signal in the ACK/NACK signal transmission slot;
receiving two reference signals (RS), which are produced by multiplying two reference signal sequences with values having opposite phases from each other and which are arranged in the Nth symbol and the Mth symbol of a CQI signals transmission slot, and receiving channel quality indicator (CQI) signals arranged in symbols of the CQI signals transmission slot other than the Nth symbol and the Mth symbol; and
demodulating the CQI signals arranged in the CQI signals transmission slot.

Abstract
It is possible to improve the CQI reception performance even when a delay is caused in a propagation path, a transmission timing error is caused, or a residual interference is generated between cyclic shift amounts of different ZC sequences. For the second symbol and the sixth symbol of the ACK/NACK signal which are multiplexed by RS of CQI, (+, +) or (−, −) is applied to a partial sequence of the Walsh sequence. For RS of CQI transmitted from a mobile station, + is added as an RS phase of the second symbol and − is added as an RS phase of the sixth symbol. A base station (100) receives multiplexed signals of ACK/NACK signals and CQI signals transmitted from a plurality of mobile stations. An RS synthesis unit (119) performs synthesis by aligning the RS phase of CQI.
