Abstract

Abstract In a transmission diversity system for selecting one of a plurality of radio transmission systems in a base station to perform diversity transmission of data to a mobile station, the base station adds transmission data and identification signals different in the plurality of radio transmission systems to transmit resultant radio signals from the plurality of radio transmission systems, and transmits transmission data from one radio transmission system based on optimal radio transmission system information transmitted as a radio wave from the mobile station. The mobile station determines an identification signal representing an optimal reception state from the plurality of identification signals detected from the data received from the plurality of radio transmission systems of the base station and transmits the determined optimal radio transmission system information to the base station.
