Base station device and cell forming method
First Claim
1. A base station device forming a cell, comprising:
- a plurality of directional antennas;
a power control unit controlling respectively transmission power of signals transmitted from said directional antennas;
a frequency management unit managing frequency bands used in the cell, anda notifying unit notifying each of sector cells of a base cell and a small-cell of control information in which the priority of the small-cell is set higher than the priority of the base cell,wherein the cell is formed with layers of the base cell having a cell border with a cell formed by a neighboring base station device and including a plurality of sector cells and the small-cell having a cell radius smaller than a cell radius of the base cell and including at least four sector cells, by said plurality of directional antennas and said power control unit, andsaid frequency management unit manages frequency bands so that frequency bands different from each other are allocated to the sector cells of the base cell, and a frequency band, which is different from the frequency bands allocated to the base cell and different between neighboring sector cells but the same between at least two sector cells, is allocated to each of the sector cells of the small-cell.

Abstract
A base station device includes a plurality of directional antennas, a power control unit and a frequency management unit. The cell is formed with layers of a base cell having a cell border with a cell formed by a neighboring base station device and including a plurality of sector cells and a small-cell having a cell radius smaller than a cell radius of the base cell and including at least four sector cells by the plurality of directional antennas and the power control unit. The frequency management unit manages frequency bands so that different frequency bands are allocated to the sector cells of the base cell, and a frequency band, which is different from the frequency bands allocated to the base cell and different between neighboring sector cells but the same between at least two sector cells, is allocated to each of the sector cells of the small-cell.

5. A cell forming method in a base station device forming a cell, comprising:
-
a cell forming step of forming the cell with layers of a base cell having a cell border with a cell formed by a neighboring base station device and including a plurality of sector cells and a small-cell having a cell radius smaller than a cell radius of the base cell and including at least four sector cells, a frequency allocating step of allocating frequency bands different from each other to the sector cells of the base cell, and allocating a frequency band, which is different from each of the frequency bands allocated to the base cell and different between neighboring sector cells but the same between at least two sector cells, to each of the sector cells of the small-cell, and a notifying step of notifying each of the sector cells of the base cell and the small-cell of control information in which the priority of the small-cell is set higher than the priority of the base cell. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8)
