The present invention has an object to provide a mobile communication system capable of reducing energy consumption of a network node in a local area range. In the present invention, when judging that there is a shift trigger in Step ST1503, a local eNB shifts from a normal operation to an energy saving operation in Step ST1504. In the energy saving operation, the local eNB stops the operation of transmitting at least a part of downlink transmission signals to be transmitted to a user equipment (UE) and performs the operation of receiving an uplink transmission signal transmitted from the UE. When judging that it has received the uplink transmission signal (RACH) in the energy saving operation in Step ST1510, the local eNB shifts to the normal operation in Step ST1511. |
