  • Patent number: 10785738
    Abstract: A deviation of time at which downlink signals synchronously transmitted from a macro-cell base station and a small-cell base station respectively reach a communication terminal apparatus can be made within an allowable range, without being affected by transmission delay in transmission cables of base station and propagation delay in radio transmission paths. The small-cell base station is provided with a radio transceiving section connected with antenna, a radio communication control section, a transmission cable connected with the radio transceiving section and the radio communication control section, and a downlink signal receiving section for receiving downlink signals transmitted from the macro-cell base station and the own base station respectively.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10707949
    Abstract: A communication system, a base station and a communication control method are provided, which are capable of cooperatively transmitting data from a plurality of base stations to a plurality of communication terminals using a same radio resource. A first base station acquires a value of an interference suppression parameter that is applied to a transmission signal from the first base station so as to suppress interference from a second base station in a first communication terminal, when the first communication terminal locates in a cell border area. The second base station duplicates a desired data for a second communication terminal located in a cell of the second base station, and transmits the duplicated desired data to the first base station.
