Application: Communication control based on service quality determination (Patent ID: US20240214899A1)

The patent filed by Rakuten Group Inc. describes a communication control apparatus that detects service requests from communication devices, determines if the required service quality is met by the current base station, and switches the connection to another base station if needed. The apparatus includes units for detecting service requests, determining service quality, transmitting requests to alternative base stations, receiving responses, and controlling connections based on the responses received.

The claims associated with the patent detail the specific components and functions of the communication control apparatus, including the detection of service requests, determination of service quality, and transmission of requests to alternative base stations. The apparatus can be implemented in various locations such as the base stations, core networks, or communication devices themselves. Additionally, the apparatus can operate in overlapping communication cell areas, across different or the same mobile communication networks, and even with non-terrestrial base stations like communication satellites. The patent also covers a communication control method and a computer-readable medium storing a communication control program for implementing the described functions.
