Communication system, relay device, management server, and communication terminal
Provided is a communication system including a relay device that relays communication between a base station and a communication terminal, and a management server, the management server including a receiving unit that receives from each base station information about a communication terminal belonging to the base station and about the relay device, and a determination unit that determines, on the basis of the information received from each base station by the receiving unit, a relay device that is performing communication interfering with communication in an adjacent cell. When the relay device is determined as a relay device that is performing communication interfering with the communication in the adjacent cell, the relay device determines an interference avoidance control and executes the determined interference avoidance control.
1. A communication system comprising:
a relay device that relays communication between a base station and a communication terminal; and
a management server, the management server including
a receiving unit that receives from each base station information about a communication terminal belonging to the base station and about the relay device, and
a determination unit that determines, on the basis of the information received from each base station by the receiving unit, a relay device that is performing communication interfering with communication in an adjacent cell, wherein
when the relay device is determined as a relay device that is performing communication interfering with the communication in the adjacent cell, the relay device determines an interference avoidance control and executes the determined interference avoidance control.
2. The communication system according to claim 1 , wherein the relay device determines as the interference avoidance control a handover to a base station that forms the adjacent cell.
3. The communication system according to claim 1 , wherein the relay device determines as the interference avoidance control a handover of a communication terminal belonging to the relay device to a relay device belonging to the adjacent cell.
4. The communication system according to claim 3 , wherein the relay device sets as a target to be handed over a communication terminal whose communication quality does not meet a predetermined criteria among communication terminals belonging to the relay device.
5. The communication system according to claim 4 , wherein the relay device executes the handover when the number of the communication terminals belonging to the relay device is greater than or equal to a predetermined number.
6. A relay device comprising:
processing circuitry configured to:
receive from each base station information about a communication terminal belonging to the base station and about the relay device,
wherein a management server determines whether the relay device is performing communication interfering with communication in an adjacent cell on the basis of the information received from each base station;
determine an interference avoidance control when the relay device is performing the communication interfering; and
execute the determined interference avoidance control.
7. A management server comprising:
a receiving unit that receives from each base station information about a communication terminal belonging to the base station and about a relay device that relays communication between the base station and the communication terminal; and
a determination unit that determines, on the basis of the information received from each base station by the receiving unit, a relay device that is performing communication interfering with communication in an adjacent cell, wherein
the relay device, which is determined by the determination unit as a relay device that is performing communication interfering with the communication in the adjacent cell, determines an interference avoidance control and executes the determined interference avoidance control.
8. A communication terminal comprising:
circuitry configured to:
communicate with a base station via a relay device that determines an interference avoidance control, wherein a management server determines whether the relay device is performing communication interfering with the communication in an adjacent cell on the basis of information received from each base station about the communication terminal belonging to the base station and about the relay device, and the relay device executes the determined interference avoidance control when the relay device is performing the communication interfering in the adjacent cell.
9. A communication system comprising:
a small-to-medium-sized base station that communicates with a communication terminal; and
a management server, the management server including
a receiving unit that receives information about a communication terminal belonging to the small-to-medium-sized base station, and
a determination unit that determines, on the basis of the information received by the receiving unit, a small-to-medium-sized base station that is performing communication interfering with another communication, wherein
when the small-to-medium-sized base station is determined by the determination unit as a small-to-medium-sized base station that is performing communication interfering with another communication, the relay device determines an interference avoidance control and executes the determined interference avoidance control.
