Abstract:
1. A base station apparatus accommodated in a first wireless communication system of a wireless communication system that combines said first wireless communication system and a second wireless communication system, said first communication system performing a packet communication at a relatively high transmission rate by assigning communication resources to each communication terminal accommodated in said first communication system and by transmitting a transmit packet generated in accordance with the assignment to all communication terminals accommodated in said first communication system with same transmit power, said second wireless communication system performing a wireless communication at a lower transmission rate than said first wireless communication system, comprising: an assignment section which, when said second wireless communication system issues an interruption request to a communication terminal that performs a packet communication in said first wireless communication system, modifies a priority of the communication terminal given the interruption request higher than when there is no interruption request and assigns communication resources, and a transmit signal generation section that generates a transmit packet for a downlink channel in accordance with the assignment of communication resources by said assignment section.
