Estimating the term…
A mobile communication system capable of reducing energy consumption of a network node in a local area range. When judging that there is a shift trigger, a local eNB shifts from a normal operation to an energy saving operation. In the energy saving operation, the local eNB stops the operation of transmitting at least a part of downlink transmission signals to be transmitted to a user equipment (UE) and performs the operation of receiving an uplink transmission signal transmitted from the UE. When judging that it has received the uplink transmission signal (RACH) in the energy saving operation, the local eNB shifts to the normal operation.
A communication system comprising a base station, an MIME unit connecting the base station, and a mobile terminal which can perform radio communication with the base station,
A base station used in a communication system comprising the base station, an MIME unit connecting the base station, and a mobile terminal which can perform radio communication with the base station,
A mobile terminal used in a communication system comprising a base station shifting between an energy saving state to reduce energy consumption and a normal state to perform a normal operation, an MME unit connecting the base station, and the mobile terminal which can perform radio communication with the base station,
