  • Base station and base station communication method
    Patent number: 11863261
    Abstract: This base station comprises: a control unit that allocates, on the basis of a doppler shift estimated using an uplink reference signal, a downlink reference signal common to a plurality of beams; and a transmission unit that transmits the common downlink reference signal via the plurality of beams. According to this base station communication method, the base station allocates, on the basis of a doppler shift estimated using an uplink reference signal, a downlink reference signal common to a plurality of beams, and transmits the common downlink reference signal via the plurality of beams.
