A DSP checks the traffic on a control channel transmitted to each terminal, and obtains a total of traffic on the control channel for each remote radio unit. The DSP transforms a correlation matrix calculated in an analysis section to a partial orthogonal matrix subjected to partial orthogonalization. The DSP divides one or more remote radio units into the groups in accordance with the sequence of rows or columns of the partial orthogonal matrix so that the total traffic for each group in which the total of traffic is added for one or more remote radio units within the group may be less than or equal to a predetermined threshold, and stores the identification number of the remote radio unit for each group in a memory.
