Abstract

A base station device according to the present invention receives wireless frames transmitted by terminal devices in nearby cells, estimates the state of the propagation channels between the terminal devices in the nearby cells and itself, based on the received signals thereof, and performs precoding on transmission data addressed to terminal devices in its own cell, based on the estimation results of the propagation channel state, and transmits.

Claims (12)

1. A transmission device comprising:

a wireless receiver that receives a first wireless frame, which is a wireless frame transmitted by a first reception device;

propagation channel estimation circuitry that estimates a state of a first propagation channel between the first reception device and the transmission device, based on a received signal of the first wireless frame;

a precoder that performs precoding on transmission data addressed to a second reception device, based on the estimation results of the state of the first propagation channel; and

a wireless transmitter that transmits the precoded transmission data to the second reception device.

2. The transmission device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the precoder performs precoding on the transmission data addressed to the second reception device so that a null is directed toward the first reception device, based on the estimation result of the state of the first propagation channel.

3. A wireless communication method of a transmission device that performs communication with a reception device, the wireless communication method comprising:

a step of receiving a first wireless frame transmitted by a first reception device,

a step of estimating a state of a first propagation channel between the first reception device and the transmission device, based on a received signal of the first wireless frame,

a step of performing precoding on transmission data addressed to a second reception device based on the estimation results of the state of the first propagation channel, and

a step of transmitting the precoded transmission data to the second reception device.
