  • the wireless communication interface 2325 may include, for example, a BB processor 2326 and RF circuitry 2327 .
  • the BB processor 2326 may perform, for example, encoding/decoding, modulating/demodulating and multiplexing/de-multiplexing, and various types of signal processing of layers (such as L1, medium access control (MAC), radio link control (RLC) and packet data convergence protocol (PDCP)).
  • the BB processor 2326 may have a part or all of the above logic functions.
  • the BB processor 2326 may be implemented as a memory storing a communication control program, or a module including a processor configured to execute a program and related circuitry. The function of the BB processor 2326 may be changed by updating the program.
  • the module may be a card or blade inserted into a slot of the base station apparatus 2320 . Alternatively, the module may be a chip installed on the card or the blade.
  • the RF circuitry 2327 may include, for example, a mixer, a filter or an amplifier, and transmits and receives a wireless signal via the antenna 2310 .
  • the wireless communication interface 2325 may include multiple BB processors 2326 .

  • the transceiving device of the apparatus for base station side may be implemented by the wireless communication interface 2325 .
  • At least a part of functions of the processing circuitry and/or units of the electronic device or the information processing apparatus for base station side according to the embodiment of the present disclosure may be implemented by the controller 2321 .
  • the controller 2321 may perform at least a part of functions of the processing circuitry and/or the units of the electronic device or the information processing apparatus for base station side according to the embodiment of the present disclosure by executing the program stored in the memory 2322 .
  • the method according to the present disclosure is not limited to be performed in the chronological order described herein, and may be performed in other chronological order, in parallel or independently. Therefore, the order in which the method is performed described herein does not limit the technical scope of the present disclosure.
