WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, BASE STATION, MOBILE STATION, AND WIRELESS COMMUNICATION METHOD

摘要

A wireless communication system comprises a plurality of base stations and a plurality of mobile stations. Each mobile station has a reception timing difference notifying means that determines a difference in reception timing between reference signals received from peripheral base stations and that notifies the reception timing difference to one or more base stations. Each base station has a transmission timing difference calculating means that calculates, based on the reception timing difference, a difference in transmission timing of reference signal between the base station itself and another peripheral base station, and also has a transmission timing difference information notifying means that notifies the transmission timing difference to the mobile station. The mobile station further has a cell searching means that restricts, based on the transmission timing difference notified by the base station, a cell search range and that then performs a cell search.
