Radio base station for offset phase transmission
First Claim
1. A radio base station for transmitting radio waves and establishing radio communication with a plurality of mobile stations of a portable telephone system, the radio base station comprising:
- control means for controlling transmission of a control data signal transmitted at a predetermined time interval;
plurality of antennas for transmitting the control data signal in a plurality of transmission directions; and
means for controlling the transmission of the control data signal in each of the plurality of transmission directions so that the control data signal is transmitted in one of the plurality of transmission directions at a time which is offset relative to transmission of the control data signal in any other of the plurality of transmission directions,wherein the control data signal is transmitted in each of the plurality of transmission directions in phase which differ from each other.

Abstract
A radio base station of a portable telephone system designed so as to establish a service area by transmission of radio waves so that radio communication is performed with a plurality of mobile stations existing in the service area, the radio base station comprising a plurality of antennas and control means for controlling transmission of a control data signal, which is to be time-divisionally transmitted at a predetermined interval, in a manner so as to transmit the control data signal by using the plurality of antennas into a plurality of directions in each of which a radiation beam of each antenna is made narrow to give directivity and in a condition that offset is given in transmission to the respective directions so as to transmit the control data signal into the directions in phases different from each other. Preferably, the offset for the respective directions is set to be N/m (msec.), where N (msec.) represents the predetermined interval and m represents the number of the plurality of directions.
