Maintenance of a wireless base station can be easily performed even when a wireless base station is installed on an electric pole. A maintenance terminal for communicating with a maintenance unit in the wireless base station through a wireless link is prepared for the wireless base station. The maintenance unit receives maintenance information and transmits the maintenance information received to the maintenance terminal, which is monitored by an operator. Also, the maintenance unit receives a control data from the maintenance terminal and controls a circuit operation of the wireless base station.
