  • Patent number: 8811264
    Abstract: A measuring unit measures the line quality with an eNB. A receiving unit receives line quality information transmitted from an UE. When the line quality measured by the measuring unit is different from line quality contained in the line quality information received by the receiving unit, a transmitting unit changes, the received target data to data for a layer that is different from the physical layer, and transmits the changed data to the UE.
