W e have developed the CIC-BS, in compliance with a tentative air interface designed for IMT-2000, and evaluated its performance both in the laboratory and in the field. In laboratory experiments using 5 MSs, where loading factor is set to around IO dB, transmission gain of 8 to 9.5 d B and receiving gain of 7 d B have been confirmed. In field experiments using 2 MSs, transmission gain of around 2.5 d B has been confirmed when the loading factor is an estimated 3 dB.
