Abstract: A ground base station (10) and a high-altitude base station (20) perform transmission beam sweeping in an orientation of a terminal (30). The terminal (30) performs reception beam sweeping in an orientation of the ground base station (10) only for a time determined in advance and, when the terminal (30) is able to find the ground base station (10), the terminal (30) connects to the ground base station (10). When the terminal (30) is unable to find the ground base station (10), the terminal (30) starts reception beam sweeping in an orientation of the high-altitude base station (20) and, when the terminal (30) is able to find the high-altitude base station (20), the terminal (30) connects to the high-altitude base station (20).

Abstract: A processor (103) in a wireless terminal (10) executes a communication service application to thereby perform an operation as a client for using a communication service. Further, in an abnormal situation where the wireless terminal (10) cannot access a server system (50) of an operator of the communication service, the processor (103) executes a predetermined activation procedure in the wireless terminal (10) without passing through the server system (50) to thereby activate a special account in the wireless terminal (10). This makes it possible, for example, to perform communication by the special account using an online service application installed in the wireless terminal during an abnormal situation where the wireless terminal cannot access the online service server.
