Abstract
Abstract In a CDMA communication system, a base station includes a spreader 11 for spreading a frequency of a standby control signal by using a short code, a differential coder 12 for differential-coding the spread standby control signal and adders 13a and 13b for adding the differential-coded signal to an I channel signal and a Q channel signal, respectively, and a terminal station includes a differencial detector 14 for differencial-detecting a receiving signal and a matched filter 15 for inverse-spreading a differencial-detected baseband signal, wherein a complete intermittent operation of the terminal station in a standby state is realized and a power consumption of the terminal station is reduced by transmitting the standby control signal containing an information indicative of the terminal station and an intermittent interval from the base station to the terminal station.
