Zusammenfassung:A base station, a communication system and a time synchronization method between base stations are provided, which are capable of performing a time synchronization with another base station using a downlink signal of the other base station cell in which the own cell is located, without stopping transmission of the own base station even during operation. A base station receives a downlink signal that includes a downlink signal including a synchronization signal transmitted from the other base station and a downlink wraparound signal transmitted from own base station, removes an interference of the wraparound signal from the downlink received signal, with respect to a predetermined subframe in which the downlink wraparound signal from own base station interferes with the synchronization signal of the base station, among subframes of the downlink signal including the synchronization signal of the base station, performs a time synchronization processing with the base station by detecting a synchronization signal timing of the base station based on the downlink received signal from which the interference of wraparound signal is removed.
