Abstract
Description
続いて、本発明の第1の実施形態について図面を参照して詳細に説明する。図3は、本発明の第1の実施形態のシステム構成を示す図である。図3を参照すると、サービス提供状況取得部101と、計算部102と、指示部103と、基地局情報記憶部104と、サービス提供ポリシ記憶部105とを備え、基地局(gNB)200を制御する制御装置100が示されている。
上記した第1の実施形態では、サービス提供ポリシに定めた目標カバレッジが固定値である例を挙げて説明したが、異なる目標カバレッジを設定した複数のサービス提供ポリシを切り替えて使用することもできる。以下、複数のサービス提供ポリシを切り替えて使用する第2の実施形態について説明する。第2の実施形態の構成及び動作は第1の実施形態とほぼ共通するので、以下、その相違点を中心に説明する。
上記した第1、第2の実施形態では、目標カバレッジを定めて基地局にサービスを提供させるか否かを決定していたが、目標カバレッジ以外の要素を用いて基地局にサービスを提供させるか否かを決定させることもできる。以下、目標カバレッジに加えて、該当する区間の交通流を用いて基地局にサービスを提供させるか否かを決定するようにした第3の実施形態について説明する。
[第1の形態]
(上記第1の視点による基地局の制御装置参照)
[第2の形態]
上記した制御装置は、前記道路の区間の全長に対し、前記所定のサービスの提供が行われている区間長の割合を用いてサービスカバレッジを計算する構成を採ることができる。
[第3の形態]
上記した制御装置は、
前記サービスカバレッジが所定の目標カバレッジ率となるように、前記基地局に対し、前記所定のサービスを提供するか否かを指示する構成を採ることができる。
[第4の形態]
前記基地局はそれぞれバックアップ電源を備えており、
上記した制御装置は、
停電が発生したことを契機に、前記サービスカバレッジが、第2の目標カバレッジ率となるように、前記基地局に対し、前記所定のサービスを提供するか否かを指示する構成を採ることができる。
[第5の形態]
上記した制御装置は、
さらに、前記道路の区間毎に、前記目標カバレッジ率を設定したパターンを複数保持し、
前記パターンを切り替えて、前記基地局に対し、前記所定のサービスを提供するか否かを判定する構成を採ることができる。
[第6の形態]
上記した制御装置は、前記パターンとして、少なくとも平日用の制御パターンと、休日用の制御パターンとを選択可能に保持している構成を採ることができる。
[第7の形態]
上記した制御装置は、前記パターンとして、少なくとも昼間用の制御パターンと、夜間用の制御パターンとを選択可能に保持している構成を採ることができる。
[第8の形態]
上記した制御装置は、さらに、
前記道路の区間の交通流に基づいて、前記基地局に対し、前記所定のサービスを提供するか否かを指示する手段を備えた構成を採ることができる。
[第9の形態]
(上記第2の視点による基地局の制御方法参照)
[第10の形態]
(上記第3の視点によるプログラム記録媒体参照)
なお、上記第9~第10の形態は、第1の形態と同様に、第2~第8の形態に展開することが可能である。
