That is, the radio base station BS1 uses the TDMA
In the signal, control is performed to advance or delay the transmission timing of the mobile station MS so that the transmission slot from the mobile station MS can be received at the timing to be received by the radio base station BS1. The propagation delay time caused by the distance from the station BS1 is corrected. Such phase control of the transmission timing to the mobile station MS is called time alignment, and the phase control value at this time is called the time alignment value. At this time, since the time alignment is established between the mobile station MS and the radio base station BS1, the mobile station M at the radio base station BS2.
The reference timing of the radio base station BS2 is adjusted so that the phase difference between the reception timing of the transmission signal from S and the reference timing is zero (see Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2-238732).

3. An inter-station synchronization system in which frame synchronization between radio base stations in a mobile communication system composed of an exchange, a plurality of radio base stations and a mobile unit is performed via the mobile unit, wherein a first radio base station is provided. A time alignment value TA set for a mobile station communicating with the station, a phase difference Tθ between a reception timing of a transmission signal from the mobile station and a reference timing at the second radio base station, and the mobile station. From the propagation delay time TD caused by the distance to the second wireless base station, the phase adjustment value ΔT for frame synchronization between the first wireless base station and the second wireless base station is ΔT = TD-
An inter-station synchronization method between radio base stations characterized in that it is decided as (TA + Tθ).
