Abstract

A communication apparatus capable of improving the spectrum usage rate of a system, especially, the spectrum usage rate in connection with both a fast fading and a channel estimation error as compared with the conventional sub-band adaptive method, while reducing the degree of the difficulty in achieving the adaptation, and further reducing the feedback overhead. In this apparatus, a sub-band group AMC parameter selecting part (318) selects an AMC parameter of each sub-band. An adaptive reception control part (503) must control an adaptive demodulating/decoding part (311), while controlling a parallel/serial converter (312) in a stage preceding the adaptive demodulation and decoding processes, and combining received symbols in the same sub-band group for demodulation and decoding.
