US Patent 7266346 Base station apparatus and communication terminal apparatus

A reception quality reporting system may include a communication terminal that measures reception directivity quality in a quality decision signal received from a base station apparatus. The communication terminal decides a switching timing at which directivities of packet data are switched based on directivity switching timing information communicated by the base station and nullifies the reception quality measured in a period before the switching timing. The communication terminal transmits to the base station apparatus reception quality information indicating the measured reception quality.
