Abstract
A wireless communication device with MIMO function conforming to a predetermined wireless standard and communication terminals that communicate with a base station incorporating MIMO function includes a master communication terminal which is any one of the plurality of communication terminals and a slave communication terminal which is connected to the master communication terminal via a predetermined connection element and is one or more communication terminals other than the master communication terminal among the plurality of communication terminals. A configuration in which a part of or all signal processing functions that relate to transmission and reception of one or more antennas incorporated in one or more slave communication terminals can be controlled from the master communication terminal is used. A configuration in which the number of antennas can be arbitrarily increased is implemented and a protocol for call connection is performed only between the base station and the master communication terminal.
