Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A communication control method used in a cellular mobile communication system that supports inter-terminal communication that is direct radio communication capable of being performed between user terminals in a state where a radio connection with a network is established, comprises a step of determining, by the network, a method for assigning a radio resource in the inter-terminal communication in accordance with a characteristic of an application used in the inter-terminal communication.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A communication control method used in a cellular mobile communication system that supports inter-terminal communication that is direct radio communication capable of being performed between user terminals in a state where a radio connection with a network is established, comprising: a step of determining, by the network, a method for assigning a radio resource in the inter-terminal communication in accordance with a load characteristic that affects at least one of a traffic throughput amount and duration between terminals, wherein the radio resource includes at least a frequency band, a step of acquiring, by the network, an identifier of an application from a user terminal, the identifier being used in the inter-terminal communication, and a step of recognizing, by the network, a characteristic of an application used in the inter-terminal communication on a basis of the identifier and a table in which the identifier is correlated with a characteristic of the application, wherein in the step of determining, the network determines the method for assigning the radio resource in accordance with the recognized characteristic.
