Abstract: A service control device is connected to a plurality of communication terminals with a multitasking ability of executing a plurality of application programs. Each communication terminal detects a usage status including a task status, a foreground ratio, and an operation frequency for each application program, thus producing service usage information reflecting a service usage history and a degree of user's concentration. The service control device determines a priority on communication terminals based on service usage information, thus generating service control information. The service control information is provided to control resource allocation per each communication terminal. A band allocation control procedure is implemented based on service control information so that each communication terminal may arbitrarily download a plurality of content data in a serial manner or in a parallel manner. Thus, it is possible to maintain a high level of user satisfaction in communication services.

Abstract: A radio base station apparatus provided with an array antenna having a plurality of antenna elements for calibrating a phase difference among the array antenna elements. The base station has a probe signal adding unit which divides one probe signal and adds the divided probe signals to each receive signals received by the plurality of antenna elements.

Abstract: Disclosed is a control apparatus capable of more effectively utilizing radio resources. Mobile stations positioned close to each other are treated as one group, and a direction and width (radiation angle) of a beam radiated from an adaptive array antenna 11 is controlled for each group so that one beam capture one group. To be concrete, a plurality of mobile stations are classified into groups by a classification section 19, and an area to which each group moves is estimated by a directivity determination section 20. The adaptive array antenna 11 is controlled by the directivity control section 15 so that one beam can cover an area in which one group is positioned and the area to which this one group moves.

Abstract: An apparatus for combining signals includes RAKE receivers 10, 20, noise-power measuring apparatuses 30, 40, and a branch combiner 50. The RAKE receivers 10, 20 are the same in number as the antenna branches, and each RAKE receiver combines received signals by using a weight based on an amplitude of each received signal. Each of the noise-power measuring apparatus 30, 40 measures a sum of an interference power and a background-noise power in an output signal from each RAKE receiver. The branch combiner 50 multiplies the output signal from each RAKE receiver by an inverse of the sum measured by the noise-power measuring apparatus, and then adds up the value obtained by each multiplication.
