BASE STATION

摘要

A base station and a method for communication between the base station and a relay station are provided by the invention. The base station comprises a transmission unit (604), a reception unit (602), a decision unit (603) and a scheduling unit (604), wherein said decision unit (603) is used for determining whether the relay station has signals to be transmitted to the base station; the scheduling unit (604) schedules the reception unit (602) according to the determining result of the decision unit 603, thus when said relay station has signals to be transmitted to the base station, it makes said reception unit (602) receive data from said relay station in the periods for one or more uplink subframes, which are regarded as uplink relay link subframes, except the uplink subframes for transmitting reception response to data which are transmitted in absolute downlink access link subframes, and said scheduling unit also schedules mobile stations, thus said mobile stations don't send data to said relay station in said periods for uplink relay link subframes.
