Abstract:
1. A method of selecting a transport format combination with a mobile station to select a first transport format combination for use in data transmission in a first physical channel in an uplink between the mobile station and a base station from a plurality of first transport format combinations to be set for the first physical channel, and a second transport format combination for use in data transmission in a second physical channel in the uplink from a plurality of second transport format combinations to be set for the second physical channel, said method comprising: the first step of calculating the sum of the transmission power of said first physical channel and the transmission power of said second physical channel using a first transport format combination and a second transport format combination, respectively, with respect to each of combinations of said first transport format combinations and said second transport format combinations, comparing the calculated sum with the maximum power of said mobile station, and determining whether said mobile station is in a transmission capable state or not based on the result of the comparison; the second step of selecting a combination of a first transport format combination and a second transport format combination from the combinations wherein said mobile station is in the transmission capable state; and the third step of transmitting data in said first physical channel and said second physical channel using the first transport format combination and the second transport format combination which are included in said selected combination, wherein said second step comprises: the fourth step of selecting the combination from transport format combinations in one of said first and second physical channels which has higher priority, which are included in the combinations wherein said mobile station is in the transmission capable state; and the fifth step of selecting the combination from transport format combinations in the other physical channel which has lower priority, which are included in the combinations wherein said mobile station is in the transmission capable state, among the combinations including the transport format combinations in said one physical channel.
