A mutlicarrier transmitting apparatus, a multicarrier receiving apparatus
and a multicarrier radio communication method, which are capable of
improving a throughput of a whole multicarrier radio communication
system. Based on receiving SNR values of users 1 to 4 for all of the
subcarriers 1 to 4 in a receiving SNR table made, the number of available
users U(n) of each subcarrier is calculated. Subcarriers n* having the
smallest number of the available users are searched, and a user k*
showing the highest receiving SNR value among the researched subcarriers
n* having the smallest number of the available users U(n) is searched.
Subsequently, the subcarriers n* are allocated to the user k*.
