Abstract

La présente invention porte sur un système de communication sans fil dans lequel une pluralité de bandes de fréquences sont utilisées pour effectuer des communications. Une pluralité d'appareils de terminal utilisés dans le système de communication sans fil sont classés en une pluralité de groupes, tandis qu'une pluralité de combinaisons de bandes de fréquences sont établies à partir de la pluralité de bandes de fréquences utilisées dans le système de communication sans fil. Dans le système de communication sans fil, un appareil de station de base alloue la pluralité de combinaisons de bandes de fréquences à la pluralité de groupes d'appareils de terminal. Lorsqu'une bande de fréquences plus large est utilisée pour effectuer des communications, non seulement une combinaison de bandes de fréquences ayant une priorité supérieure mais encore une combinaison de bandes de fréquences ayant une priorité inférieure sont utilisées et les procédés de communication dans les combinaisons respectives de bandes de fréquences sont effectués indépendamment les uns des autres. De cette façon, lorsqu'une pluralité de bandes de fréquences sont utilisées pour effectuer des communications sans fil, les contraintes qui se produisent en raison des complications de programmation, d'allocations de ressources, de configurations et similaires, provoquées par les différences des bandes de fréquences élémentaires utilisées par les appareils de terminal respectifs, peuvent être réduites.
