Abstract
A method and corresponding communication control device that includes: a first receiver that receives a registration update request to update operator information about an operator who operates a communication device permitted to perform priority utilization of a frequency band, from a first operator to a second operator; and a control circuity that, on the basis of the registration update request, updates the operator information about an operator who operates the communication device, from the first operator to the second operator, and maintains the permission for priority utilization of the frequency band by the communication device.
Claims12
A communication control device comprising:
- circuitry configured to:
- receive a registration update request to update operator information about an operator who operates a communication device permitted to perform priority utilization of a frequency band, from a first operator to a second operator;
- on a basis of the registration update request, update the operator information about an operator who operates the communication device, from the first operator to the second operator, and maintain the permission for priority utilization of the frequency band by the communication device;
- receive a leasing request that indicates that the communication device is leased from the first operator to the second operator,
- wherein the circuitry:
- manages a state transition regarding a registration state of the communication device,
- in a case where the leasing request is received when the registration state of the communication device is a first state, performs a transition of the registration state of the communication device from the first state to a second state, and
- in a case where the registration update request is received when the registration state of the communication device is the second state, updates the operator information about an operator who operates the communication device.
A communication control method executed by a communication control device, the communication control method comprising:
- receiving a registration update request to update operator information about an operator who operates a communication device permitted to perform priority utilization of a frequency band, from a first operator to a second operator;
- and
- on a basis of the registration update request, updating the operator information about an operator who operates the communication device, from the first operator to the second operator, and maintaining the permission for priority utilization of the frequency band by the communication device;
- receiving a leasing request that indicates that the communication device is leased from the first operator to the second operator,
- wherein the method further comprises:
- managing a state transition regarding a registration state of the communication device,
- in a case where the leasing request is received when the registration state of the communication device is a first state, performing a transition of the registration state of the communication device from the first state to a second state, and
- in a case where the registration update request is received when the registration state of the communication device is the second state, updating the operator information about an operator who operates the communication device.
