Communication system, connection destination control method, control apparatus and program

A connection destination control method in a communication system including a terminal that wirelessly communicates with a base station and a control device, the method comprising:

• transmitting, by the terminal, location information of the terminal;
• setting, by the control device, an area around a dead zone as a preliminary dead area, wherein the preliminary dead area has a predetermined radius larger than a radius of the dead zone;
• acquiring, by the control device, location information of the terminal;
• determining, by the control device, whether the terminal is in the preliminary dead area by comparing the location information of the terminal with the preliminary dead area;
• and
• performing, by the control device, control for switching a connection destination of the terminal in response to determining that the terminal is in the preliminary dead area.

A control device in a communication system including a terminal that wirelessly communicates with a base station and a control device, the control device comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory that includes instructions, which when executed, cause the processor to execute the following steps:
• setting an area around a dead zone as a preliminary dead area, wherein the preliminary dead area has a predetermined radius larger than a radius of the dead zone;
• acquiring location information of the terminal, and
• determining whether the terminal is in the preliminary dead area by comparing the location information of the terminal with the preliminary dead area and performing control for switching a connection destination of the terminal when the determining determines that the terminal is in the preliminary dead area.
