Control apparatus, base station, and terminal
A control apparatus in a communication system including a base station and terminals, the control apparatus including: a memory, and a processor coupled the memory and configured to receive data addressed to M terminals (where M is a natural number equal to or greater than 2) of the terminals, and to transmit the received data to the base station, such that N terminals (where N is a natural number less than M) of the M terminals are scheduled in the same timing by the base station.
1. A control apparatus in a communication system including a base station and terminals, the control apparatus comprising:
a memory; and
a processor coupled the memory and configured to:
receive data addressed to M terminals (where M is a natural number equal to or greater than 2) of the terminals;
transmit the received data to the base station, such that N terminals (where N is a natural number less than M) of the M terminals are scheduled in the same timing by the base station;
determine priorities for the M terminals, and determine the N terminals based on the determined priorities; and
determine the priorities based on at least one of respective data types of the received data, respective data sizes of the received data, and respective wireless qualities between respective M terminals and the base station.
2. The control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor is further configured to determine to give higher priority of the priorities to the data that has much demand for real-time property.
3. The control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor is further configured to determine to give higher priority of the priorities to the data that has much data sized.
4. The control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor is further configured to determine to give higher priority of the priorities to the data that is addressed to one or more of the M terminal whose wireless quality is better.
5. The control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor is further configured to estimate respective timings when transmissions of the received data begin, and transmit the respective estimated timings to the base station.
6. The control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the processor is further configured to determine the priorities per the base station.
7. A base station in a communication system including the base station and terminals, the base station comprising:
a memory; and
a processor coupled the memory and configured to:
receive data addressed to M terminals (where M is a natural number equal to or greater than 2) of terminals;
schedule transmissions of the received data to the M terminals, such that N terminals (where N is a natural number less than M) of the M terminals are scheduled in the same timing by the base station;
schedule transmissions based on determined priorities for the M terminals, and determine the N terminals based on the determined priorities; and
wherein the determined priorities are based on at least one of respective data types of the received data, respective data sizes of the received data, and respective wireless qualities between respective M terminals and the base station.
