METHOD OF DETERMINING LOCATION FOR INSTALLING MOVEABLE BASE STATION AND INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS
A method of determining a location at which a movable base station is to be installed is provided. In the method, an information processing device performs first determination processing of determining a base station providing radio communication that does not satisfy a predetermined condition based on information of a radio signal of each base station, second determination processing of determining a number of virtual terminals to be set in a coverage area of the base station providing the radio communication that does not satisfy the predetermined condition based on the information of the radio signal of the base station, and third determination processing of determining the location at which the movable base station is to be installed based on a location of each virtual terminal set in the coverage area of the base station providing the radio communication that does not satisfy the predetermined condition.
1 . A method of determining a location at which a movable base station is to be installed, the method executed by an information processing device, the method comprising:
determining a base station providing radio communication that does not satisfy a predetermined condition, based on information of a radio signal of the base station;
determining a number of virtual terminals to be set in a coverage area of the base station providing the radio communication that does not satisfy the predetermined condition based on the information of the radio signal of the base station; and
determining the location at which the movable base station is to be installed based on a location of each of the virtual terminals set in the coverage area of the base station providing the radio communication that does not satisfy the predetermined condition.
2 . The determination method according to claim 1 , wherein, in the determining the base station, the base station providing the radio communication that does not satisfy the predetermined condition is determined based on at least one of a channel use rate of the base station, the number of terminals under control of the base station, or information indicating a received strength of a radio signal from the base station.
3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein, in the determining the number of virtual terminals, the number of the virtual terminals set in the coverage area of the base station providing the radio communication that does not satisfy the predetermined condition is determined based on at least one of the channel use rate of the base station, the number of terminals under control of the base station, and the information indicating a received strength of the radio signal from the base station.
4 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein in the determining the location at which the movable base station is to be installed, the location at which the movable base station is to be installed is determined based on a result of clustering of the locations of the virtual terminals set in the coverage area of the base station providing the radio communication that does not satisfy the predetermined condition by using a k-means method.
5 . An information processing device comprising:
a processor; and
a memory that includes instructions, which when executed, cause the processor to execute the following steps:
determining a base station providing radio communication that does not satisfy a predetermined condition, based on information of a radio signal of the base station,
determining a number of virtual terminals set in a coverage area of the base station providing the radio communication that does not satisfy the predetermined condition based on the information of the radio signal of the base station, and
determining a location at which a movable base station is to be installed based on a location of each of the virtual terminals set in the coverage area of the base station providing the radio communication that does not satisfy the predetermined condition.
