Abstract

SeNBs generate first identification information for specifying wireless access networks on the basis of system information provided in a notification from a relay communication device, wirelessly transmit the first identification information to UE, and notifiy an MeNB of second identification information for specifying wireless resources, utilization of which is permitted, via the relay communication device. The MeNB sets, in a signal directed to an SeNB selected from the SeNBs in the first identification information received from the UE, the first identification information of the SeNB, sets the second identification information of the selected SeNB in the signal directed to the UE, and transmits the signal to the relay communication device. The relay communication device transfers the signal received from the master base station to the SeNB in accordance with the first identification or the second identification information set in the signal. The SeNB wirelessly transmits the signal transferred from the relay communication device and directed to the UE.
