Abstract
In a radio communication system including multiple mobile terminals and multiple radio base stations, the mobile terminal has a function of interference rejection combining. The radio base stations share downlink channel characteristics for mobile terminals connected to radio base stations. The radio base station gives weights to radio waves transmitted from multiple transmission antennas to perform in-phase addition of an interfering radio wave beam directed to a mobile terminal for which the desired radio base station is another radio base station to an interfering radio wave beam transmitted from yet another radio base station for limiting the number of interfering radio wave beams that arrive at the mobile terminal. The radio base station does not perform in-phase addition when the number of interfering radio wave beams of which interference can be suppressed by the mobile terminal is equal to or greater than the number of radio base stations that send interfering radio wave beams to the mobile terminal.
