- the SINR comparison table shows the power for issuing an allocation request if the subchannel is less than the slot usage rate when the subchannel is a predetermined SINR.
- the communication quality is very good, ie, when the SINR is 30 dB or more, the allocation request is issued regardless of how high the slot usage rate is. It is possible to transmit transmission request data one after another even if the usage rate of the subchannel is high, assuming that the subchannel also has very good communication quality with other communication terminal devices 200.
- the communication quality is poor, that is, if the SINR is less than 5 dB, the slot usage rate is required to be low, so that when using that subchannel, it is a low-speed bit to allow communication even in adverse environments. It is expected that data will be transmitted at a rate, and the number of slots used will be expected to increase in proportion to the bit rate, and other communications will be made since low bit rate communications are assigned. This is to avoid the situation where the slot can not be allocated to the terminal device 200.
- the slot usage rate threshold for requesting slot allocation is set based on the same concept also in the case where SINR is 5 dB or more and less than 30 dB.
- the threshold value of the usage rate is set in units of 5 dB, such as 5 dB or more and less than 10 dB.

- step S808 the subchannel being focused is registered in the allocation request buffer (step S808), and the allocation request buffer is full. It is checked if it is full (step S810). If it is full, the process proceeds to step S811, and if there is space, the process proceeds to step S812.
- the subchannel request generation unit 215 notifies the control unit 216 of the allocation request subchannel information stored in the hazard ij allocation request buffer, and the transmission unit 217 transmits it to the communication control apparatus 100 through the uplink (step S811). Return to step S801.
- the subchannel request generation unit 215 checks whether all the subchannels have been compared with the SINR comparison table from the start of the frame to the current time. (Step S812) If there is a subchannel that has not been examined yet (YES in Step S812), then the next to the subchannel currently focused on is focused on the better value of SINR, ie, the subchannel with the lower SINR (Step S813). , Repeat the processing from step S806. If all have been checked (NO in step S812), the contents of the allocation request buffer at the current time are checked (step S814). If nothing is registered in the buffer (YES in step S814), the process returns to step S801. If at least one piece of information is registered! /, (NO in step S 814), the process of step S 811 is performed.

- the communication control apparatus 100 and the communication terminal apparatuses 200 operate according to the above-described procedure, it is possible to avoid a situation where communication requests are concentrated on a specific subchannel and congestion occurs. Also, especially in the situation where subchannels with good communication quality can be secured, the communication capacity can be increased by giving priority to using subchannels.
- communication terminal apparatus 200 uses the reception quality and congestion status of each subchannel.
- the method of selecting the subchannel to which the allocation request is made has been described.
- the information indicating the congestion status is not necessarily transmitted every frame, and it is also conceivable that the communication terminal apparatus 200 having difficulty in receiving the information indicating the congestion status may exist depending on the channel status.
- the appropriate selection of the subchannel to which allocation is requested is There are also things that can be done. The following measures can be taken against this.
- communication terminal apparatus 200 can apply a method of autonomously determining the congestion status of each subchannel.
- the assignment status for each subchannel is determined based on the assignment information. (For example, in the sub-channel request generation unit 215). It is possible to grasp the congestion status for each subchannel by observing the allocation status for each subchannel over several frames.
- communication terminal apparatus 200 can grasp congestion status also by calculating received signal power of each sub-channel. This is because a certain amount of power can be calculated on the subchannel being used (to which communication terminal apparatus 200 is allocated). Based on the ability to distinguish between in-use sub-channels and non-in-use sub-channels, since sub-channels can only calculate power as low as the noise level. Therefore, by observing the received signal power of each subchannel over several frames, it is possible to detect frequently used subchannels, and it is possible for the terminal to understand congestion status for each subchannel.
- the congestion status of each sub-channel can be displayed.
- the communication terminal apparatus 200 can autonomously determine and select a sub-channel for making an allocation request. By this means, communication terminal apparatus 200 can reduce the amount of information notified to communication control apparatus 100 by selecting the subchannel for which allocation is requested and sending reception quality information of the selected subchannel. Also, the communication control device 100 can grasp the subchannel requested by the communication terminal device 200. Furthermore, the amount of information of reception quality handled by the communication control apparatus 100 can be suppressed. This enables efficient scheduling.
