Abstract:
1. A radio base station configured to receive data transferred from a radio network controller through a wired transmission path having a predetermined bandwidth, and to transmit the data to a mobile station through a radio transmission path, the radio base station comprising: a determiner configured to determine a transfer rate at which the radio network controller transfers the data to the radio base station, based on the predetermined bandwidth, on a bandwidth of the wired transmission path not being used, and on a bandwidth of the wired transmission path being used by the mobile station; and a notifier configured to notify the radio network controller of the determined transfer rate; wherein the wired transmission path is configured with a VP or VC in ATM, and the determiner determines the transfer rate in further consideration of a ratio of a length of a header in an ATM cell to a length of a header in an RLC-PDU associated with the ATM cell.
