Radio communication system and reception status display method
First Claim
1. A radio communication system having a plurality of terminals and a base station,wherein each of the terminals comprises:
- a reception status detector for detecting a reception status of a signal received from said base station; and
a notification unit for notifying said base station of the reception status detected by said reception status detector, andwherein the base station comprises;
a management unit for managing the terminals based on identification information to identify each terminal;
a connection unit for trying to wirelessly connect to the terminals managed by said management unit;
a collector for collecting the reception statuses of the terminals notified from said notification unit of the terminal that could be connected by said connection unit;
an out-of-area display buffer for storing identification information of terminals that could not be connected by said connection unit;
a display buffer for storing identification information and reception status of a terminal that has the worst reception status among reception statuses collected by said collector; and
a display control unit for displaying on a display unit, identification information stored in said out-of-area display buffer and identification information and the reception status stored in said display buffer.

Abstract
In a radio communication system, during radio connection between a base station 100 and a terminal 200, the base station 100 transmits a reception status notification request to the terminal 200. The terminal 200 receives the reception status notification request from the base station 100, then measures reception electric field intensity and error rate in the communication with the base station 100 and transmits these values as reception status information to the base station 100. The base station 100 stores the reception status information notified from the terminal 200, with linkage to a terminal number. When call origination to all the terminals has been completed, the base station 100 displays all the reception status information stored in a storage device 104, with linkage with terminal numbers, on an external display device.

8. A reception status display method, in a radio communication system having a plurality of terminals and a base station, for displaying a reception status of said terminals on said base station, wherein said base station:
-
manages the terminals based on identification information to identify each terminal; tries to wirelessly connect to the managed terminals; collects the reception statuses of terminals notified from a notification unit of the terminal that could be connected by said base station; stores identification information of terminals that could not be connected by said base station in an out-of-area display buffer; stores identification information and reception status of a terminal that has the worst reception status among the collected reception statuses, in a display buffer; and displays identification information stored in said out-of-area display buffer and identification information and the reception status stored in said display buffer.
