Abstract: A radio apparatus and base station apparatus that flexibly respond to an increase or decrease in the number of users without being constrained by the number of users. An A-DPCH signal processing section (106) generates dedicated transmission signals corresponding in number to users multiplexed based on the number of users for each sector input from a control station apparatus and outputs the multiplexed signal to a multiplexing section (105). An HSDPA signal processing section (107) selects a transmission destination sector based on an instruction from a base station control section, generates multiplexed transmission data and outputs the multiplexed data to the multiplexing section (105). The multiplexing section (105) code-multiplexes dedicated transmission signals of A-DPCH and packet data in HSDPA communication for each sector and outputs the multiplexed data to a radio transmission section (104).

Abstract: A mobile station is provided for autonomously detect an abrupt change of a propagation environment of a radio wave signal from a base station for servicing a peripheral cell and immediately executing a peripheral cell search. In order to execute a received signal strength indication plural times within one period of the peripheral cell search, the mobile station operates to set a cell search execution period &Dgr;t1 to a timer of a peripheral cell search controller and a RSSI measuring execution period &Dgr;t2 to a timer. The RSSI measuring unit operates to measure the RSSI in the receiving band at each RSSI measuring execution period &Dgr;t2 and immediately execute the peripheral cell search when the peripheral cell search controller determines that the RSSI has greatly varied.

Abstract: When packet sending and receiving apparatus 21 sets a connection, timing control apparatus 22 generates a timing information Tf as the packet is dispersed equivalently. Timing control apparatus 22 notices the timing information Tf to packet sending and receiving apparatus 21 and base station 3.

Consequently, it is possible to decrease a waiting time of the packet multiplex transmission. Therefore, it is possible to use efficiency a transmission link L1, while being satisfied the required service quality.
