Abstract
A communication control method is a method in which a neighboring cell #1 supplements a coverage of an OFF target cell #2 by increasing transmission power of the neighboring cell #1, when setting the OFF target cell #2 to an OFF state. The communication control method comprises: a step A of informing, by a UE 100 connected to the OFF target cell #2, the OFF target cell #2 of neighboring cell received power that is received power of a radio signal from the neighboring cell #1; and a step B of deciding, by a server 400 that acquires the neighboring cell received power via the OFF target cell #2, on the basis of the acquired neighboring cell received power, an amount of increase in transmission power of the neighboring cell #1.

A communication control method in which a neighboring cell supplements a coverage of an OFF target cell by increasing transmission power of the neighboring cell, when setting the OFF target cell to an OFF state, comprising:
- a step A of acquiring, by a network apparatus, from a user terminal connected to the OFF target cell, neighboring cell received power that is received power of a radio signal from the neighboring cell;
- and
- a step B of deciding, by the network apparatus, on the basis of the neighboring cell received power, an amount of increase in transmission power of the neighboring cell.
A network apparatus in which a neighboring cell, which neighbors an OFF target cell, supplements a coverage of the OFF target cell by increasing transmission power of the neighboring cell, when setting the OFF target cell to an OFF state, wherein
- the network apparatus
- acquires neighboring cell received power of a user terminal notified from a user terminal connected to the OFF target cell via the OFF target cell, and
- decides an amount of increase in transmission power of the neighboring cell on the basis of the acquired neighboring cell received power, and
- the neighboring cell received power is received power of a radio signal from the neighboring cell.
A base station of which transmission power is allowed to increase, wherein
- an increase in the transmission power is based on neighboring cell received power of a user terminal connected to a cell other than a cell managed by the base station,
- the neighboring cell received power includes received power of a radio signal from a cell managed by the base station,
- the neighboring cell neighbors the cell, and
- the neighboring cell received power is received power of a radio signal from the neighboring cell.
