The present invention relates to a method of transmitting data using
adaptive coding scheme, which changes channel coding rate of transport
blocks (TBs) adaptively in accordance with channel transmission
conditions, at physical layer of asynchronous mobile communication system
such as W-CDMA or IMT-2000 in order to achieve effective data
transmission, and relates to a base station using the method. This method
is to apply to a physical layer of an asynchronous mobile communication
system where a SRNC consisting of a media access control (MAC) layer and
radio link control (RLC) for transmitting channel data and a base
station, connected to the SRNC with a wired interface, consisting of the
physical layer being in charge of actual data transmission are included.
According to this method, a new management module is added over the most
upper layer of the physical layer to collect all acknowledgement
information for each channel from an opposite physical layer, to
determine a puncturing rate suitable to current channel conditions and to
report the acknowledgement information to the MAC layer of the SRNC which
decides whether to deliver down new TBs to the physical layer based on
the received acknowledgement information.
