RADIO BASE STATION, USER TERMINAL AND RADIO COMMUNICATION METHOD

摘要

The present invention is designed to allow effective use of frequency resources even when a plurality of user terminals of varying capabilities coexist. A radio base station, which communicates with a user terminal by using a plurality of component carriers, has a configuration section that configures a subframe of a first carrier type, which a plurality of user terminals of varying capabilities each can receive, and a subframe of a second carrier type, which part of the plurality of user terminals can receive, in component carriers, and a transmission section that transmits downlink signals to the user terminal by using the first carrier type and the second carrier type, and the configuration section configures the subframe of the first carrier type and the subframe of the second carrier type, on a dynamically changing basis, in at least one of the plurality of component carriers.
