Abstract

Techniques for assigning uplink dedicated resources in inter-site or inter-eNB carrier aggregation promptly are disclosed. One aspect of the present invention relates to a base station including a transmission and reception unit configured to use radio resources to communicate with a user equipment and a resource management unit configured to manage the radio resources, wherein the resource management unit comprises a pooling information storage unit configured to store pooling information indicative of radio resources reserved for the base station by a non-anchor base station in inter-eNB carrier aggregation, and the resource management unit autonomously assigns the radio resources indicated in the pooling information to the user equipment.
