RADIO COMMUNICATION DEVICE AND RADIO COMMUNICATION METHOD

摘要

Provided is a mobile communication system capable of obtaining a diversity effect even when a signal received by a relay station has an error in a corporate relay to which time space encoding is applied. In this mobile communication system, when S1 has no error and S2 has an error, a relay station (1) does not perform relay transmission at time t (Null) and relay-transmits S1* to a base station at time t + T. That is, in this case, the relay station (1) relay-transmits at time t + T only S1 to be transmitted at time t when no error is contained in either S1 or S2. Moreover, when S1 has an error and S2 has no error, the relay station (1) relay-transmits S2 at time t and does not perform relay transmission at time t + T (Null). That is, in this case, the relay station (1) relay-transmits only S2 to be transmitted at time t + T at time t if no error is contained in either S1 or S2.
