Patent ID: 8897284

Claim:
A radio base station configured to perform a MIMO multiplexing transmission in which multiple different streams are simultaneously transmitted in a downlink data channel to a mobile station by using multiple antennas, the radio base station comprising: a rank indicator acquisition unit configured to acquire, from the mobile station, a rank indicator indicating number of streams determined by the mobile station; a rank indicator adjustment unit configured to adjust the rank indicator acquired by the rank indicator acquisition unit, by using an offset value unique to the mobile station, wherein the rank indicator adjustment unit is configured to adjust the rank indicator, according to a reception error rate in the downlink data channel calculated based on an ACKINACK signal for the downlink data channel notified by using an uplink channel; a stream-number determination unit configured to determine the number of streams to be simultaneously transmitted to the mobile station, based on the rank indicator adjusted by the rank indicator adjustment unit; a channel quality information acquisition unit configured to acquire, from the mobile station, channel quality information in the downlink data channel through which the streams are transmitted; a channel quality information adjustment unit configured to adjust the channel quality information according to the reception error rate; and a determination unit configured to determine a modulation scheme used and the number of bits that can be transmitted by a predetermined radio resource used in the downlink data channel, based on the channel quality information adjusted by the channel quality information adjustment unit.
