Wireless communication system, communication apparatus, communication method, and communication program

A communication apparatus configured to transmit a plurality of data streams including at least a first stream and a second stream, the communication apparatus comprising:

• a resource block allocation determiner configured to determine an allocation of resource blocks to be used when transmitting the first and second streams;
• and
• a control information determiner configured to determine control information regarding data transmission on at least the first stream, on the basis of the overload ratio of resource blocks in the first and second streams, wherein
• in the case where one of at least a modulation scheme or a coding rate is different between the first stream and the second stream, a transmit power is allocated to a stream having low spectrum efficiency, and said first and second streams are transmitted on the basis of said determined control information, wherein
• the control information is code rate information,
• the control information includes transmit power information, and
• in the control information determiner, the transmit power information is determined such that the transmit power increases for streams having a code rate with lower spectral efficiency.

A communication method configured to transmit a plurality of data streams including at least a first stream and a second stream, wherein a processor is configured to perform and/or execute the communication method, the communication method comprising:

• determining an allocation of resource blocks to be used when transmitting the first and second streams;
• and
• determining control information regarding data transmission on at least the first stream, on the basis of the overload ratio of resource blocks in the first and second streams, wherein
• in the case where one of at least a modulation scheme or a coding rate is different between the first stream and the second stream, a transmit power is allocated to a stream having low spectrum efficiency, and said first and second streams are transmitted on the basis of said determined control information, wherein
• the control information is modulation scheme information,
• the control information additionally includes transmit power information, and
• the transmit power information is determined such that the transmit power increases for streams having a modulation scheme with lower spectral efficiency as indicated by the modulation scheme information.
