Radio communication device, cradle device, and relay transmission method

Abstract

Provided is a radio communication device which can increase a relay performance of a mobile station. In this device, a connection unit (108) performs connection between the local station and a cradle by connecting a connection unit of the cradle. A connection detection unit (109) detects connection between the local station and the cradle and outputs to a relay processing control unit (110), a signal indicating that the connection with the cradle has been detected. If a signal indicating that connection with the cradle has been detected is inputted from the connection detection unit (109), the relay processing control unit (110) outputs a control signal to a relay processing unit (112), a switch (111), and a switch (113) so as to execute a relay process on the signal transferred from the cradle and transmit the obtained signal to the cradle.
