Abstract

A radio communication system includes at least one user equipment, a first base station, a second base station, a first gateway, a second gateway, and a switching station. The switching station decides whether or not a gateway through which communication executed by the user equipment should be routed is the second gateway. In a case in which it is decided that the gateway through which communication executed by the user equipment should be routed is the second gateway, the switching station executes control for establishing a first user path for uplink and a second user path that is a radio path. The second base station executes control for establishing a first user path for downlink.
