Abstract:
1. A communication method of a base station which transmits a modulation signal based on an OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) modulation scheme to a plurality of communication terminals, the method comprising: forming a transmission frame on which a first subcarrier group and a second subcarrier group are arranged, the first subcarrier group on which a signal having a first transmission scheme is arranged and the second subcarrier group on which a signal having a second transmission scheme different from the signal having the first transmission scheme in transmission quality is arranged; determining on a per frame basis, which subcarrier group of the first subcarrier group and the second subcarrier group is allocated to each of the plurality of communication terminals and what number of subcarriers are selected from the subcarrier group that is allocated to said each of the plurality of communication terminals; forming the transmission frame based on the determined subcarrier group and the determined number of subcarriers; and transmitting the modulation signal including the transmission frame; wherein the determining of how many subcarriers are allocated to said each of the plurality of communication terminals is performed on the per frame basis, based on a radio propagation condition estimation information according to each of the plurality of communication terminals, the radio propagation condition estimation information comprising information on a signal received by each of the plurality of communication terminals according to electric filed intensity and interference.
