Patent number: 9148793Abstract: Upon receipt of an RLF Indication message indicating a failure in a handover where a radio base station eNB10-1 is the handover source from the other radio base station eNB, the radio base station eNB10-1 can recognize that its coverage is not adjusted appropriately by referring to the RLF Indication message. Moreover, the radio base station eNB10-1 can adjust coverage appropriately by expanding the radiation area of the antenna 101 whose radiation area is directed toward the other radio base station eNB being the handover target, among the antennas 101 included in the radio base station eNB10-1.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 2011Date of Patent: September 29, 2015Assignee: KYOCERA CorporationInventors: Yoshimasa Kusano, Chiharu Yamazaki, Taku Nakayama, Shingo Joko, Kazutaka Nakamura

Patent number: 8503589Abstract: A wireless communication apparatus, having a plurality of antennas 11-1 to 11-M and for diversity-combining signals received by the plurality of antennas 11-1 to 11-M, is provided with a combining information calculation unit 14 for calculating antenna combined amplitude and combining weights based on received power of the plurality of antennas 11-1 to 11-M, a combining unit 15 for weighting and combining the signals received by the plurality of antennas 11-1 to 11-M based on the combining weights calculated, and a decoding processing unit 16 for decoding a combined reception signal generated by the combining unit 15. It thereby improves fading durability of the decoding process by reducing influence of multipath fading caused by arrival waves with delays, even in a case of using only a small number of reception antennas, and maintains a stable reception condition consistently, as well as achieving downsizing of and reduction in cost of hardware.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2008Date of Patent: August 6, 2013Assignee: Kyocera CorporationInventors: Daisuke Toyama, Yoshimasa Kusano
