  • Publication number: 20140369223
    Abstract: The present invention is designed to detect an S-cell efficiently, in a short time, upon carrier aggregation in a HetNet. In a communication system where carrier aggregation is executed between a first carrier (CC #1) and a second carrier (CC #2), a macro base station apparatus (20A) generates a carrier detection signal that makes a mobile terminal apparatus (10) detect the second carrier (CC #2), such that carrier aggregation is executed with the first carrier (CC #1), and transmits the carrier detection signal to an RRH base station apparatus (20B) such that the carrier detection signal is transmitted from the RRH base station apparatus (20B) to the mobile terminal apparatus (10) in the second carrier (CC #2) in which the carrier detection signal can be allocated with a higher density than a reference signal of the first carrier (CC #1). The macro base station apparatus (20A) detects an S-cell based on the received quality of the carrier detection signal fed back from the mobile terminal apparatus (10).
