DISTRIBUTED ANTENNA SYSTEM, BASE STATION DEVICE, AND ANTENNA SELECTION CONTROL METHOD

摘要

An optimum communication mode and an optimum antenna are selected according to traffic and a radio propagation status of a terminal. With the use of traffic information between a base station and the terminal, an SISO communication or an SIMO communication is conducted if the traffic is small. It is determined whether the MIMO communication should be conducted, or not, if the traffic is large. An antenna that can exert the effect as the MIMO communication is selected by using the radio propagation channel state information between the distributed antennas of the base station and the antenna of the terminal. Also, because the selection of the antenna is changed by conducting the MIMO communication, an antenna optimum for the terminal that conducts the SISO communication or the SIMO communication is re-selected taking the interference influence on the terminal that conducts the SISO communication or the SIMO communication into account.
