Wireless communication system based on regenerative and non-regenerative relay operation

摘要

A wireless communication system enabling multihop communication while maintaining the system throughput and preventing degradation of the user throughput. In the system, a BS (base station) determines the relaying method (whether an RS performs reproduction relay or nonreproduction relay) of the RS (relaying station) and the MCS of multihop communication according to the reception quality (the line quality among an MS2, the RS, and the BS) of the pilot for nonreproduction relay, the reception quality (the line quality between the RS and the BS) of the pilot 2 for reproduction relay, and the line quality (the line quality between the MS2 and the RS) measured at the RS. The determination result is transmitted as relay information to the RS and to the MS2 (amobile station (2)) through the RS. The MS2 encodes and modulates the uplink data with the MCS based on the relay information and transmits the data to the RS. The RS relays the uplink data while selecting nonreproduction relay or reproduction relay according to the relay information.
