Abstract
A radio communication system is disclosed in which radio communications are performed between a base station and a number of terminal stations. In the base station, a weight value storage section stores amplitude and phase weight values used when a terminal station to communicate with the base station is specified and scanning weight values that allow the base station to scan its associated service area with directional beams when no terminal station is specified. A directivity controller controls the directivity of an array antenna using the scanning weight values stored in the storage section so that the base station scans its associated service area when no terminal is specified. When a communication request signal and a terminal identification signal are received from a terminal, it is specified as a requesting terminal. The directivity controller then determines the directivity of the array antenna on the basis of the weight values corresponding to that requesting terminal station, so that data transmissions are performed between the base station and the requesting terminal station.
