Communication terminal apparatus

Abstract

A determination section 301 determines whether or not a DSCH has been assigned to the communication terminal apparatus in question, and outputs a signal indicating the result of that determination to a transmission controller 102, and the transmission controller 102 changes as appropriate the degree of frequency of transmission of a signal containing shared channel information according to the result of determination by the determination section 301. That is to say, the transmission controller 102 outputs a signal containing shared channel information to a modulator 103 with a high degree of frequency when the DSCH has been assigned to that terminal, and outputs a signal containing shared channel information to the modulator 103 with a low degree of frequency when the DSCH has not been assigned to that terminal.
