Abstract
A relay transmission system includes a relay unit configured to relay uplink signals and downlink signals in the first and second communication systems, a time division duplex (TDD) information estimation unit configured to estimate a transmission period of network devices in the first communication system on the basis of the uplink or downlink signal of the first communication system that is relayed by the relay unit, a surplus bandwidth determination unit configured to determine a surplus bandwidth in which an uplink signal of the first communication system is not allocated to a relay target of the relay unit during the transmission period on the basis of the number of network devices and a maximum transmission capacity of the network devices, and a bandwidth allocation unit configured to allocate the uplink signal of the second communication system to the relay target of the relay unit in the surplus bandwidth.
