Spread spectrum communication device and spread spectrum communication method
First Claim
1. A mobile station used in a code division multiple access system continuously transmitting uncompressed frames in a normal mode, and intermittently transmitting compressed frames in a compressed mode, comprising:
- a receiving unit configured to receive transmission power control information indicating an increase or a decrease in power from a base station;
an interleaving unit configured to perform interleaving in bit units on a frame;
a compressing unit configured to compress a frame so as to produce a compressed frame in compressed mode;
a transmitting unit configured to transmit frames; and
a control unit configured to control said interleaving unit, said compressing unit, and said transmitting unit,characterized in that said compressing unit and said transmitting unit are configured to be controlled so as todivide said compressed frame into a front portion of a frame window and a rear portion separated from the front portion, where said front portion has a front edge of a frame window and said rear portion has a rear edge of said frame window, andadjust transmission power of the frames which are uncompressed in a normal mode and the compressed frames in a compressed mode in accordance with the transmission power control information, by increasing or decreasing current transmission power with a power control step size which can be set to one of a plurality of values for the normal mode, and with the power control step size which can be set to one of a plurality of values for the compressed mode.

Abstract
In a compressed mode, a spread spectrum communication device interleaves bit units across multiple frames using an interleaver, reduces the spreading factor using a framing/spreading unit, outputs the compressed mode frames at a predetermined compressed mode frame timing, and increases the average transmission power in the compressed mode at a radio frequency transmitter. Furthermore, a handover between different frequencies is carried out by establishing synchronization to another frequency carrier, based on a first search code and a second search code which have been detected, and moreover, a handover between different communication systems is carried out by establishing synchronization to a GSM, based on an FCCH and a SCH which have been detected.
