Patent ID: 8355733

Claim:
A radio communication system comprising: a first base station having a first communication area, and performing radio communication with a first terminal in the first communication area using a first frequency band; a second base station having a second communication area adjacent to the first communication area, and performing radio communication with a second terminal in the second communication area using a second frequency band different from the first frequency band; and a common base station capable of radio communication with the first base station, the second base station, the first terminal and the second terminal, wherein the common base station receives radio output signals from the first base station and the second base station, and performs a radio communication with the first terminal using the first frequency band based on conditions of the received radio output signals, and wherein the common base station performs radio communication with the second base station, using a frequency in the first frequency band, being different from the frequency for terminal communication provided for communicating with the first terminal.
