  • Patent number: 11343132
    Abstract: A radio transmission device includes: a known signal generating unit that generates a first known signal and a second known signal mapped in such a manner that subcarriers for transmitting a first signal not being 0 do not overlap with each other in symbols of one time band; an IDFT unit that converts the first known signal and the second known signal from a frequency domain signal into a time domain signal; a GI inserting unit that inserts a guard interval into the first known signal and the second known signal converted into time domain signals; a transmission antenna that transmits the first known signal in which the guard interval is inserted; and a transmission antenna that transmits the second known signal in which the guard interval is inserted.

  • Publication number: 20210329433
    Abstract: A wireless communication apparatus that allocates radio resources is a base station or a mobile station that transmits a data series on a frequency channel in a frequency hopping pattern corresponding to a radio resource time slot. The apparatus includes a transmission quality measurement unit that measures radio waves in a frequency band used in the transmission of the data series and evaluates transmission quality, and the radio resources including a reserved resource and spare resources, a resource allocation unit that allocates, to the mobile station lower than or equal to a threshold value in transmission quality of a frequency channel used in a reserved resource time slot, a time slot that improves frequency channel transmission quality, of spare resource time slots.

  • Publication number: 20170135111
    Abstract: An antenna control device controls a plurality of antennas used for communicating with a mobile station that moves along a predetermined path in a radio communication system that includes a plurality of linear cells, each of which is formed by the antennas and in each of which each of the antennas sets a directionality in a same direction as a path of the mobile station and transmits an identical signal at an identical frequency, and that has two frequencies recurrently allocated in such a manner that adjacent linear cells use different frequencies for transmission. The antenna control device adjusts, in each of the linear cells, power distribution to each of the antennas that form the linear cell so as to be gradually decreased with distance in a direction of antenna directionality of each of the antennas.
