Abstract
To appropriately select a beam used in communication in an environment in which massive-MIMO beamforming is performed, there is provided a base station including: a communication unit configured to form multiple beams and perform communication with a terminal apparatus; and a control unit configured to transmit, to the terminal apparatus, first identification information of a group that is used in communication with the terminal apparatus among the first identification information allocated to groups each of which includes multiple beams to be formed.
Claims35
A base station comprising:
- a communication unit configured to form multiple beams and perform communication with a terminal apparatus;
- and
- a control unit configured to transmit, to the terminal apparatus, first identification information of a group that is used in communication with the terminal apparatus among the first identification information allocated to groups each of which includes multiple beams to be formed.
A terminal apparatus comprising:
- a communication unit configured to perform communication with a base station that forms multiple beams and performs communication;
- and
- a control unit configured to transmit, to the base station, first identification information of a group available for communication with the base station among the first identification information allocated to groups each of which includes multiple beams to be formed.
A communication method that is performed by a processor, the communication method comprising:
- forming multiple beams and performing communication with a terminal apparatus;
- and
- transmitting, to the terminal apparatus, first identification information of a group that is used in communication with the terminal apparatus among the first identification information allocated to groups each of which includes multiple beams to be formed.
A communication method that is performed by a processor, the communication method comprising:
- performing communication with a base station that forms multiple beams and performs communication;
- and
- transmitting, to the base station, first identification information of a group available for communication with the base station among the first identification information allocated to groups each of which includes multiple beams to be formed.
A recording medium having a program recorded therein, the program causing a computer to function as:
- a communication unit configured to form multiple beams and perform communication with a terminal apparatus;
- and
- a control unit configured to transmit, to the terminal apparatus, first identification information of a group that is used in communication with the terminal apparatus among the first identification information allocated to groups each of which includes multiple beams to be formed.
A recording medium having a program recorded therein, the program causing a computer to function as:
- a communication unit configured to perform communication with a base station that forms multiple beams and performs communication;
- and
- a control unit configured to transmit, to the base station, first identification information of a group available for communication with the base station among the first identification information allocated to groups each of which includes multiple beams to be formed.
