摘要:
A macrocell base station includes a storage to store information of a plurality of virtual areas obtained by dividing a macrocell and information of small cells associated with the plurality of virtual areas, and a controller to perform a process of specifying the virtual area where the terminal is located, the specifying using a distance between the macrocell base station and the terminal residing in the macrocell, and a process of generating cell search information for the small cell that is to be transmitted to the terminal, the generating using the small cell information associated with the information of the specified virtual area.
