Site diversity reception method in a mobile communication system, the base station host apparatus in a mobile communication system that employs a site diversity reception method

摘要

A technique used in a mobile communications system. A mobile terminal station transmits a signal subjected to an error-correction encoding processing. Each of a plurality of base stations receives the signal transmitted from the mobile terminal station via the wireless line, performs an error-correction decoding processing for the received signal, and transmits an error-correction decoded signal to a base-station host apparatus via the wired line. The base-station host apparatus performs an error-correction encoding processing for each of the signals received from the base stations, composes the thus error-correction encoded signals into one signal, and performs an error-correction decoding processing for the composed signal. The technique can improve the error rate of a received signal without increasing the amount of signal data flowing between the base stations and the base-station host apparatus.
