Abstract

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a signal transfer system that transfers a signal from one communication device to another communication device, the signal transfer system including an information acquisition unit that acquires network transfer information that is information regarding a traffic flow for each traffic flow from the one communication device to the other communication device; and a communication control unit that executes an adjustment process that is a process of reducing a waiting time for a frame on the basis of the network transfer information acquired by the information acquisition unit.

Claims (32)

1 . A signal transfer system that transfers a signal from one communication device to another communication device, the signal transfer system comprising:

a first processor;

a first storage medium having computer program instructions stored thereon, wherein the computer program instruction, when executed by the first processor, perform processing of:

acquiring network transfer information that is information regarding a traffic flow for each traffic flow from the one communication device to the other communication device;

a second processor; and

a second storage medium having computer program instructions stored thereon, wherein the computer program instruction, when executed by the second processor, perform processing of:

executing an adjustment process that is a process of reducing a waiting time for a frame on the basis of the network transfer information.

2 . The signal transfer system according to claim 1 , wherein the adjustment process is one or both of a time division duplex (TDD) timing adjustment process of adjusting a frame transmission timing that is a timing at which a frame is transmitted in TDD according to a predetermined rule set in advance and a transport block size (TBS) adjustment process of adjusting a TBS according to a predetermined rule set in advance.

3 . The signal transfer system according to claim 2 , wherein

the other communication device is a wireless terminal, and

the frame transmission timing is a timing at which a downlink transmission frame that is a frame transmitted from the one communication device to the wireless terminal is transmitted.

4 . The signal transfer system according to claim 1 , wherein

the second storage medium stores computer program instructions which, when executed by the second processor, perform the processing of:

executing an analysis process based on the network transfer information.

5 . The signal transfer system according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a third processor;

a third storage medium having computer program instructions stored thereon, wherein the computer program instruction, when executed by the third processor, perform processing of:

transfering the network transfer information to the second processor, and

executing an analysis process based on the network transfer information.

6 . The signal transfer system according to claim 4 , wherein

the analysis process includes a process of averaging values related to a state of a frame.

7 . The signal transfer system according to claim 4 , wherein

the analysis process includes a process of predicting a state of a future frame on the basis of a value related to a state of a frame.

8 . The signal transfer system according to claim 1 , wherein

the information regarding the traffic flow indicates a downlink frame size and a transmission interval.

9 . The signal transfer system according to claim 1 , wherein

the information regarding the traffic flow indicates a transmission rate.

10 . The signal transfer system according to claim 1 , wherein

the information regarding the traffic flow indicates a destination address.

11 . A signal transfer method of transferring a signal from one communication device to another communication device, the signal transfer method comprising:

acquiring network transfer information that is information regarding a traffic flow for each traffic flow from the one communication device to the other communication device; and

executing an adjustment process that is a process of reducing a waiting time for a frame on the basis of the network transfer information.
