Abstract

A CU (Central Unit) executes scheduling for allocating radio resources of RRUs (Remote Radio Units) to radio transmission of downlink data while broadcasting, to DMs (Data Managers) via MFH, downlink data from MBH. Each DM selects, based on an allocation result obtained by scheduling, the downlink data of an RRU (Remote Radio Unit) corresponding to the self DM from the accumulated downlink data from the CU, and transfers the selected downlink data to the corresponding RRU while discarding the downlink data of other RRUs. Based on the allocation result, each RRU performs radio transmission of the downlink data from the DM to a corresponding UE (User Equipment) using the designated radio resource. This makes it possible to efficiently transfer the downlink data from the CU to each RRU via the MFH constructed by a TDM system represented by TDM-PON.
