Abstract

A searcher 105 creates a delay profile of a known symbol portion of a received base band signal by using a basic code, and a number-of-codes/kind-of-code determining unit 106 determines the number and kind of shift codes being used, on the basis of the delay profile. Correlators 108-1 to 108-n compute the correlation values between the known symbol first half of the received base band signal and the shift code. Correlators 109-1 to 109-n compute the correlation values between the known symbol second half of the received base band signal and the shift codes. A phase estimation unit 119 estimates the phase rotation per unit time by using the sum of the output signals of the correlators 108-1 to 108-n and the sum of the output signals of the correlators 109-1 to 109-n. As a result, the influence of the cross-correlation of spreading codes and the influence of noises are suppressed, so that the phase rotation between the known symbols can be estimated highly precisely to realize highly precise AFC.

When base station apparatus carries out multiplexing transmission to a plurality of communication terminals with above-mentioned data shown in Figure 4, in case the delay that the recipient of communication terminal uses basic code to make known symbol in the receiving baseband signal distributes, can detect the peak value above threshold value, the quantity of this peak value is equal to the communication terminal that communicates at present.
When if base station apparatus uses shift code Codei and communication terminal to carry out radio communication, the moment that sends data with base station apparatus is 0, will displays from the moment (i-1) * W to the peak value of crossing threshold value less than the time band Ti wide-ultra of moment i * W.
For example, Fig. 6 demonstrates peak value P1 and the P3 that T1 and T3 wide-ultra are crossed threshold value, hence one can see that, and base station apparatus is to use shift code Code1 and shift code Code3 and communication terminal to carry out radio communication.
