1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a receiver configured to receive designation information corresponding to a user operation, the designation information designating a geographic area for which an index indicating a degree of human congestion in the geographic area is to be determined; and
a controller configured to, in response to receipt of the designation information, determine the index indicating the degree of human congestion by;
determining a degree of wireless communication traffic in the geographic area; and
evaluating the degree of wireless communication traffic in the geographic area to produce the index indicating the degree of human congestion in the geographic area,wherein a ratio of a degree of current wireless communication traffic to the degree of wireless communication traffic in the past in the geographic area is determined as the index for the geographic area and wherein the degree of wireless communication traffic is a ratio of a smallest correlation output for a scrambling code to a highest correlation output for another scrambling code in code division multiple access (CDMA) communication.

11. A communication system comprising:
-
a wireless communication apparatus configured to transmit, in response to a user operation designating a geographic area for which an index indicating human congestion in the geographic area is to be determined, designation information regarding the geographic area; and an information processing apparatus comprising; a transceiver configured to receive the designation information from the wireless communication apparatus and to transmit information indicative of the index of human congestion to the wireless communication apparatus, and a controller configured to, in response to receipt of the designation information, determine the index indicating human congestion by; determining a degree of wireless communication traffic in the geographic area; and evaluating the degree of wireless communication traffic in the geographic area to produce the index indicating human congestion in the geographic area, wherein a ratio of a degree of current wireless communication traffic to the degree of wireless communication traffic in the past in the geographic area is determined as the index for the geographic area and wherein the degree of wireless communication traffic is a ratio of a smallest correlation output for a scrambling code to a highest correlation output for another scrambling code in code division multiple access (CDMA) communication.

12. An information processing method comprising:
-
receiving, from a wireless communication apparatus, designation information designating an area for which an index indicating human congestion in the area is to be determined; and in response to receiving the designation information; determining a degree of wireless communication traffic in the area; and evaluating the degree of wireless communication traffic in the area to produce the index indicating human congestion in the area, wherein a ratio of a degree of current wireless communication traffic to the degree of wireless communication traffic in the past in the area is determined as the index for the area and wherein the degree of wireless communication traffic is a ratio of a smallest correlation output for a scrambling code to a highest correlation output for another scrambling code in code division multiple access (CDMA) communication.
