A base station including a transmitting and receiving amplifier for
amplifying CDMA signals exchanged with a mobile station; a radio stage
connected to the transmitting and receiving amplifier for carrying out
D/A conversion of a transmitted signal that undergoes baseband spreading,
followed by quadrature modulation, and for carrying out quasi-coherent
detection of a received signal, followed by A/D conversion; a baseband
signal processor connected with the radio stage for carrying out baseband
signal processing of the transmitted signal and the received signal; a
transmission interface connected with the baseband signal processor for
implementing interface with external channels; and a base station
controller for carrying out control such as management of radio channels
and establishment and release of the radio channels. The base station
communicates with the external channels by mapping logical channels into
physical channels. The CDMA signals are spread using a short code and a
long code.
