BASE STATION DEVICE, TERMINAL DEVICE, COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, COMMUNICATION METHOD, AND INTEGRATED CIRCUIT

摘要

Provided are a communication system and a communication method which are capable of preventing control of connection and switching between second base station devices from being complicated in the communication system in which a first base station device and the plurality of second base station devices are disposed so that the second base station devices overlap a cell range of the first base station device. In the communication system in which the first base station device and the plurality of second base station devices are disposed so that the second base station devices overlap the cell range of the first base station device, a transmission unit of the first base station device transmits a broadcast channel for notifying broadcast information of the first base station device and a downlink control channel including broadcast information of the second base station device to a terminal device.
