Base station, mobile station, communication control system, and communication control method
First Claim
1. A base station comprising:
- a first radio communicator that transmits and receives information using both a main carrier and a plurality of sub-carriers, thereby wirelessly communicating with a mobile station; and
a controller that controls the first radio communicator,wherein the controller is configured to cause the first communicator to transmit, to the mobile station using the main carrier, first control information for communication using a first sub-carrier, and first difference information comprising a difference between the first control information and second control information for communication using at least one sub-carrier different from the first sub-carrier, wherein a size of the first difference information is smaller than a size of the second control information.

Abstract
In order to improve the use efficiency of radio resources upon executing a CA function, a base station (10A) forming a communication control system simultaneously transmits and receives a main carrier (100) and a plurality of sub-carriers (101 and 102) to wirelessly communicate with a mobile station (20). Prior to this, the base station (10A) notifies, to the mobile station (20) through the main carrier (100), first control information (201) for communication using the first sub-carrier (101), and first difference information (401) on a difference between the first control information (201) and second control information (202) for communication using another sub-carrier (102). The mobile station (20) reproduces the second control information (202) by using the first control information (201) and the first difference information (401).
