When a closed loop transmission diversity control is performed by
controlling the phase of the transmission signals from the plurality of
antennas according to feedback information noticed by the mobile station
to transmit the signals, an antenna verification on-off control unit 370
controls the on-off of an antenna verification process of estimating the
phase of the transmission signals from the plurality of antennas
according to the information about the channel of the signals transmitted
in the uplink from the mobile station to a radio base station. Thus,
depending on the channel type (for example, a packet channel, a voice
channel, etc.), the on-off control is performed on the antenna
verification process, thereby performing easier and more appropriate
control and improving the quality of a channel.
