Mobile communication method and mobile station

Abstract

A mobile communication method according to the present invention includes: transmitting, from a mobile station, a retransmission-control applied dedicated physical data channel to which a retransmission control processing is applied and which is configured not to contain any transmission data blocks, when there is no transmission data block that should be transmitted, at a predetermined cycle, with a transmission power having a predetermined offset relative to a transmission power of a dedicated physical control channel; generating, by a radio base station, transmission power control information for controlling a transmission power of the dedicated physical control channel, by a closed-loop power control based on a reception quality of the dedicated physical control channel, and by an outer-loop power control based on a reception quality of the retransmission-control applied dedicated physical data channel, and transmitting the transmission power control information to the mobile station; and determining, by the mobile station, the transmission power of the dedicated physical control channel, based on the transmission power control information, and transmitting, from the mobile station, the dedicated physical control channel to which the re-transmission control processing is not applied with the determined transmission power.
