Abstract

See full text

A communication system includes a communication apparatus and a base station. The communication apparatus includes a Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) transformer which transforms a time-domain signal into a frequency-domain signal with a DFT size that is a product of powers of a plurality of values; a mapper which maps the frequency-domain signal on a plurality of frequency bands, each frequency band being located at a position separate from position(s) of other(s) of the plurality of frequency bands; and a signal generator which generates a single carrier-frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) time-domain signal from the mapped signal. The base station includes a receiver which receives the SC-FDMA time-domain signal; a combiner which generates the frequency-domain signal from the SC-FDMA time-domain signal; and a transformer which transforms the frequency-domain signal into the time-domain signal with an inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT) having the DFT size.
