摘要

The present disclosure provides a radio communication device including a communication processor that connects to at least one first radio terminal through radio communication using beam forming, an information sharer that acquires first connection information including a connection situation of one or more second radio terminals connected to a second radio communication device, a switch determiner that determines whether or not to switch a connection destination of the at least one first radio terminal from the radio communication device to the second radio communication device in reference to the first connection information, and a connection switcher that, when the switch determiner determines to switch the connection destination, switches the connection destination of the at least one first radio terminal from the radio communication device to the second radio communication device.

BACKGROUND

1. Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to a radio communication device that connects to a radio terminal as one of a plurality of access points to a communication network through radio communication using beam forming, and a communication control method.

2. Description of the Related Art

Millimeter wave communication, which requires no license and uses radio signals in the 60-GHz band while enabling high-speed communication, has been receiving attention in recent years.

Examples of major standards for wireless local area network (LAN) and wireless personal area network (PAN), which employ the millimeter wave communication, include Wireless Gigabit (WiGig), IEEE 802.15.3c, wireless high definition (WirelessHD), ECMA-387, and IEEE 802.11ad.

A millimeter wave band signal has radio-wave characteristics, which exhibit high linearity and large spatial attenuation. Thus, in many cases of the millimeter wave communication, which involves the above-described standards, beam forming techniques are used to control the directivity of the radio communication using a plurality of antennas.

Such beam forming techniques control the direction or width of a beam, which constitutes a communication area having directivity, and cause the beam to follow the position of a radio terminal, which is a communication partner. When a plurality of radio terminals are present in a range where a beam can be formed, which is hereinafter referred to as a “cell”, a millimeter wave communication device that uses the beam forming techniques connects to a plurality of radio terminals by switching the direction of the beam through time division.
