COMMUNICATION CONTROL DEVICE, COMMUNICATION CONTROL METHOD, AND TERMINAL DEVICE
First Claim
1. A communication control device comprising:
- an acquisition unit configured to acquire a result of measurement performed by a terminal device with regard to one or more small cells which are partly or entirely overlapped by a macrocell; and
a selection unit configured to select a base station which is not to be set in an idle state from base stations of the one or more small cells based on the result of the measurement.

Abstract
[Object] To make it possible to suppress deterioration in communication quality of radio communication in a small cell while power consumption of a base station of the small cell is reduced.
[Solution] Provided is a communication control device including: an acquisition unit configured to acquire a result of measurement performed by a terminal device with regard to one or more small cells which are partly or entirely overlapped by a macrocell; and a selection unit configured to select a base station which is not to be set in an idle state from base stations of the one or more small cells based on the result of the measurement.

15. A communication control method comprising:
-
acquiring a result of measurement performed by a terminal device with regard to one or more small cells which are partly or entirely overlapped by a macrocell; and selecting, using a processor, a base station which is not to be set in an idle state from base stations of the one or more small cells based on the result of the measurement.

16. A communication control device comprising:
-
a communication control unit configured to control transmission of a signal for measurement performed by a terminal device with regard to a small cell which is partly or entirely overlapped by a macrocell; and a state control unit configured to refrain from causing a base station of the small cell to be in an idle state when the base station of the small cell is selected as a base station that is not to be set in the idle state based on a result of the measurement.

17. A terminal device comprising:
-
an acquisition unit configured to acquire a result of measurement with regard to one or more small cells which are partly or entirely overlapped by a macrocell; and a providing unit configured to provide the result of the measurement to a communication control device which selects a base station which is not to be set in an idle state from base stations of the one or more small cells based on the result of the measurement.
