1. A base station apparatus comprising:
- at least one first communicator for carrying out a communication with fixed directivity;
at least one second communicator for carrying out a communication with variable directivity;
an assigner for assigning a communication to said first and second communicators according to a communication condition; and
a communication condition detector for detecting said communication condition, wherein;
said communication condition comprises interference with other terminals, and said assigner assigns a communication with small interference with other terminals to said first communicator and a communication with large interference with other terminals to said second communicator.

Abstract
Taking into account an optimal reception characteristic of a communication apparatus with variable directivity, the base station apparatus of the present invention has a communication apparatus with variable directivity positively accommodate a communication with a terminal in poor reception conditions, which makes it possible to reduce power of this terminal and reduce interference, thereby increasing the subscriber capacity in the system.
