MULTI-HOP WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, MANAGEMENT APPARATUS, COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, AND CONTROL METHOD

摘要

A multi-hop wireless communication system wherein either a base station or any one of relay stations serves as a scheduling station to centrally perform the allocations of radio resources of the base station and some or all of the relay stations. The multi-hop wireless communication system comprises a process time information generating means and a process time information notifying means. The process time information generating means generates, based on the connection structure between a communication apparatus and the base station or between the communication apparatus and a relay station, process time information indicating a process time from when the communication apparatus requests a radio resource from the scheduling station till when the radio resource is allocated from the scheduling station to the communication apparatus. The process time information notifying means notifies the communication apparatus of the process time information obtained by the process time information generating means.
