With reference to Fig. 5, flow chart 500 provide can by with communication system 100 in the exemplary flow of the step carried out according to each side of the present invention of mobile radio station.In step 501, mobile radio station can select first base station to send data, and mobile radio station can receive data from selected first base station.Selected first base station can be base station 101 for example.In step 502, mobile radio station sends the CQI information relevant with first base station on R-CQICH, and this finishes by covering CQI information with the Walsh sign indicating number that is first base station assigns.Mobile radio station such as the bad reception from first base station, can select second base station to continue received communication in communication system 100 in step 503 for many reasons.This selection can be based on many different standards, such as the C/I pilot signal level that receives the last one from second base station.Second base station can be base station 160.In step 504, the transmission that mobile radio station comes brachymemma R-CQICH with empty CQI data, described R-CQICH is used for the transmission of the CQI of first base station.Yet according to one aspect of the present invention, empty CQI data cover with the Walsh of second base station and encode.The brachymemma meeting of R-CQICH continues at least one time frame, is used for base station shifting.Switching in the period, mobile radio station can continue to receive the transmission from first base station.After switching the period, mobile radio station sends the CQI information of second base station in step 505.CQI information covers with the Walsh of second base station and encodes.Correspondingly, mobile radio station is in the transmission of step 506 reception from second base station.
With reference to Fig. 6, flow chart 600 provides can be by the exemplary flow of the base station in the communication system 100 according to the step of each side execution of the present invention.In step 601, first base station receives the CQI information of first base station from mobile radio station.CQI information covers with the Walsh of first base station and encodes.In step 602, first base station receives the transmission through brachymemma of R-CQICH at least one time frame.The base station also detects the brachymemma transmission and comprises that the Walsh with second base station covers the empty CQI information of coding.In step 603, the selection of second base station that is used to serve mobile radio station is detected in the base station through the transmission of brachymemma according to R-CQICH.The sign of second base station is mainly based on the detection that the Walsh that distributes to second base station is covered.Thereby in step 604, base station controller switches to second base station to transfer of data from first base station with first and second base stations.Therefore, (for example the base station 101) are routed to second base station (for example the base station 160) from first base station by backhaul 199 for example to be used to the data transmitted.
Usually R-CQICH has two kinds of operator schemes: complete C/I feedback model and difference C/I feedback model.In complete C/I feedback model, only send complete C/I report.In difference C/I feedback model, send pattern complete and difference C/I report.When mobile radio station decision brachymemma R-CQICH, it can use complete C/I pattern for the transmission of empty CQI data, and described empty CQI data are with the Walsh sign indicating number covering of selected base station.With reference to Fig. 7, show two examples of the complete and difference C/I feedback on the R-CQICH.In first example 701, use first time slot to be used for the transmission of differential CQI information.In second example 702, the CQI transmission meets sky CQI transmission mode.In example 703, the CQI message transmission on brachymemma R-CQICH during time slot 14 and 15 (being the difference modes transmission).Brachymemma during the time slot 14 and 15 transmission is that the Walsh with the base station of up-to-date selection covers and encodes.In example 704, the CQI message transmission on brachymemma R-CQICH during time slot 14 and 15 (being complete mode transfer).Brachymemma transmission during the time slot 14 and 15 is to encode with the Walsh covering of the base station of up-to-date selection.According to each side of the present invention, the brachymemma of R-CQICH can be carried out at the arbitrary time slot place in time frame.For example, brachymemma can be carried out time slot 6 and 7 mid portions at time frame at time slot 6 and 7 places.Brachymemma can be carried out in any amount of time slot.Several time slots in the sustainable time frame of the brachymemma of R-CQICH, and can be staggered on the different adjacent time-slots constantly of this time frame.Power level is also different at every turn.The switching period can continue a plurality of time frames; Therefore, can be chosen as any number to the time frame number that is used for brachymemma.In some cases, wherein switching can take distance, and changing the period can be up to 8 time frame.During these 8 time frames, the brachymemma meeting of R-CQICH takes place with many different possible patterns.In addition, the CQI data that send at the brachymemma time durations can be the sky data.Empty data can be any data patterns.Data pattern is predetermined.During switching the period, cover by the Walsh that detects different base station, receiving the switching that the base station can specified data be routed to a different base station should begin or begin.Like this, for switching in the time frame that the period distributes, first base station can be expected and stopped transmission to mobile radio station.Detect its Walsh cover switch be used in the period after, second base station can begin to prepare to start to the transmission of mobile radio station behind the time frame number that is distributed.On the one hand, the last CQI transmission of Information of R-CQICH can be by gate.The transmission through gate of R-CQICH can comprise the nothing transmission of gate in the period.For example, 16 of a time frame 8 time slots in may time slot can be by gate.During the time slot of gate, transmitter may not launched.Like this, according to each side of the present invention, the brachymemma transmission meeting of R-CQICH takes place during at least one or a plurality of time slot that transmission is allowed.
