Wireless communication system, wireless communication method, clustering management apparatus, and program

A wireless communication method using a terminal station configured to enable wireless inter-terminal station communication, the wireless communication method comprising:

• transmitting information regarding wireless quality and information regarding a service in use from the terminal station to a base station that wirelessly communicates with the terminal station;
• transmitting information transmitted from the terminal station to the base station and information regarding a wireless environment of the terminal station from the base station to a central station that communicates with the base station;
• learning clustering, based on information transmitted from the base station to the central station, such that required wireless quality corresponding to the service in use by the terminal station is satisfied;
• transmitting information regarding learned clustering from the central station to the base station as clustering control information;
• and
• clustering the terminal station according to the clustering control information received transmitted from the central station to the base station.

A clustering management apparatus for managing clustering of a terminal station configured to enable wireless inter-terminal station communication, the clustering management apparatus comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a program memory coupled to the one or more processors and storing executable instructions,
• wherein the instructions configured to cause the one or more processors to:
• acquire information regarding wireless quality of the terminal station, information regarding a service in use by the terminal station, and information regarding a wireless environment of the terminal station from a base station that wirelessly communicates with the terminal station;
• learn clustering, based on information received from the base station, such that required wireless quality corresponding to the service in use by the terminal station is satisfied;
• and
• transmit information regarding learned clustering to the base station.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program configured to cause a computer to execute:

• acquire information regarding wireless quality of a terminal station configured to enable wireless inter-terminal station communication, information regarding a service in use by the terminal station, and information regarding a wireless environment of the terminal station from a base station that wirelessly communicates with the terminal station;
• learn clustering, based on information received from the base station, such that required wireless quality corresponding to the service in use by the terminal station is satisfied;
• and
• transmit information regarding learned clustering to the base station.
