Wireless communication system, communication control method, and base station
A wireless communication system includes a first base station and a second base station that respectively communicate with a mobile station by using a wireless resource. The first base station includes a resource control unit that controls allocation of the wireless resource to the second base station. The second base station includes a communication unit that communicates with the mobile station by using the wireless resource allocated from the first base station.
1. A wireless communication system including a first base station and a second base station, the first base station communicating with a mobile station by using a wireless resource other than allocated wireless resource, the second base station being installed under the first base station, the second base station communicating with a mobile station by using wireless resource allocated by the first base station, wherein
the first base station comprises a resource control unit that controls allocation of the wireless resource to the second base station, the resource control unit reallocating the wireless resource depending on a communication situation of the first base station when the second base station requests reallocation of the wireless resource, and
the second base station comprises
a communication unit that communicates with the mobile station by using the wireless resource allocated from the first base station, and
a resource request unit that requests the reallocation of the wireless resource to the first base station.
2. The wireless communication system according to claim 1 , wherein the resource control unit controls the allocation of the wireless resource to the second base station based on a communication amount in the first base station.
3. The wireless communication system according to claim 1 , wherein the resource request unit requests the allocation of the wireless resource to the first base station based on a communication amount in the second base station.
4. The wireless communication system according to claim 1 , wherein the resource control unit controls the allocation of the wireless resource to the second base station when the second base station is actuated.
5. The wireless communication system according to claim 1 , wherein
the first base station and the second base station use a common control protocol for controlling the allocation of the wireless resource, and
the resource control unit allocates the wireless resource by using the control protocol.
6. A communication control method in a wireless communication system including a first base station and a second base station, the first base station communicating with a mobile station by using a wireless resource other than allocated wireless resource, the second base station being installed under the first base station, the second base station communicating with a mobile station by using wireless resource allocated by the first base station, the communication control method comprising:
controlling allocation of the wireless resource to the second base station from the first base station, by the first base station;
communicating with the mobile station by using the wireless resource allocated from the first base station, by the second base station;
requesting the reallocation of the wireless resource to the first base station, by the second base station; and
reallocating the wireless resource depending on a communication situation of the first base station when the second base station requests reallocation of the wireless resource.
