In a mobile communication system, broadcast information is transmitted
from a radio base station to a mobile station. A transmission power
calculation unit calculates the transmission power for transmitting
resending data frames from the radio base station to the mobile station
by a unicast transmission method. The transmission power calculation unit
further calculates the transmission power for transmitting broadcast
information from the radio base station to the mobile station by a
broadcast transmission method such that the sum of the calculated
transmission power and the transmission power for transmitting broadcast
information from the radio base station to the mobile station by the
broadcast transmission method is minimized. A transmission section of the
radio base station transmits the broadcast information to the mobile
station by the broadcast transmission method at the calculated
transmission power.
