Abstract
A re-use partition of cells in a mobile communication system has an outer cell (30) and an inner cell (20) which is provided in the outer cell (30). An interval of cells using the same channel or the same frequency in the inner cells is shorter than an interval in the outer cells, which is the nature of a re-use partition. Communication between a base station and a mobile station is carried out by using a channel having a higher received level of an outer cell channel or an inner cell channel. A base station has a first beam tilt antenna having tilt angle (.THETA..sub.out) for an outer cell (30), and a second beam tilt antenna having tilt angle (.THETA..sub.in) so that .THETA..sub.in is larger than .THETA..sub.out. A speech channel and a control channel are provided for each of the first antenna and the second antenna.
