Patent ID: 7272416

Claim:
A site diversity transmission/reception apparatus that includes a plurality of base stations and at least one mobile station, and realizes site diversity communication between the base stations and the mobile station, wherein each of the base stations includes a transmission control unit that sets a condition for signal processing based on reception signal quality information, which indicates reception quality of a communication path between the base station and the mobile station and which is received from the mobile station, wherein the condition includes one or more selected from a group consisting of a modulation method, an interleave length, a coding ratio, and a puncturing rule; and a signal processing-transmitting unit that processes a signal to be transmitted to the mobile station based on the condition set by the transmission control unit and transmits the signal processed to the mobile station, and the mobile station includes a plurality of receiving units, wherein each of the receiving unit receives the signal transmitted from the signal processing-transmitting unit of one of the plurality of the base stations; a plurality of demodulating units, wherein each of the demodulating units demodulates the signal received by a corresponding one of the receiving units to thereby generate a soft decision value; a plurality of deinterleavers, wherein each of the deinterleavers deinterleaves the soft decision value generated by a corresponding one of the demodulating units to thereby obtain a deinterleaved result; a combining unit that adaptively code-combines the deinterleaved results of all the deinterleavers to thereby obtain a combined result; and a decoding unit that subjects the combined results to error-correction decoding processing.
