Patent ID: 8855651

Claim:
A base station comprising: a storing unit that stores phase differences between one timing for said base station itself to start generation of SFN (System Frame Number) and timings for a plurality of neighboring base stations to respectively start generation of SFN, the phase differences differing from each other; a transmitting unit that adds SFN, the generation of which is started at said one timing, to broadcast information and wirelessly transmits the broadcast information; and a specifying unit that specifies, as a handover target of a mobile station camping on said base station itself, a neighboring base station starting generation of SFN with a phase difference equivalent to a first difference between one SFN added to the broadcast information and another SFN received at the mobile station with respect to said base station itself, wherein the transmitting unit is configured to set said one timing in accordance with an instruction from a maintenance device connected in common to the respective base stations.
