Abstract

A resource determination unit determines at least a part of an uplink part in a switch subframe as a second resource for a wireless terminal to transmit an SRS and determines at least a part within any uplink subframe as a third resource for the wireless terminal to transmit uplink user data including a DRS for a prescribed period. A transmission path state estimation unit estimates a state of a transmission path to the wireless terminal based on the DRS included in the uplink user data after the third resource is determined. A resource notification unit forms antenna directivity based on the estimated state of the transmission path and transmits a control message for notifying the wireless terminal of the determined second resource.
