INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD AND PROGRAM
This invention enables flexible connection with a wide variety of core networks even without changing, for example, equipment and/or operating systems related to existing base stations. This invention serves as at least one of (i) an interface via which a base station and a first core network are connected with each other and (ii) an interface via which a terminal device connected with the first core network via the base station and the first core network are connected with each other, and includes: a first stateful communication section (51) carrying out communication with the base station according to a stateful protocol; and a stateless communication section (52) carrying out communication with the first core network according to a stateless protocol.
The present invention improves frequency utilization efficiency, prevents a decrease in the communication capacity of a terminal, and reduces interference in the uplink and the downlink of a service link of each base station in a mobile communication system provided with a ground base station and an airborne relay-type base station having an antenna provided on a flying object or the like (such as a UAV, an HAPS, or a communication satellite) in the sky. The airborne relay-type base station and the ground base station each carry out radio communication of the service link with the terminal by means of time division duplexing (TDD) using the same frequency. The airborne relay-type base station and the ground base station employ opposite transmission timings and reception timings for the TDD radio communication in the service link. The airborne relay-type base station estimates the direction of a service link antenna of the ground base station and performs control to direct the null of the directional beam of a service link antenna of the airborne relay-type base station toward the estimated direction of the service link antenna of the ground base station.
