Abstract: When a femto cell base station used for a communication system provided with a function of providing a predetermined supplementary service receives first information indicating supplementary service control from a radio terminal, the femto cell base station converts the received information to a SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) message including the first information and transmits the SIP message to a higher apparatus in the communication system.

Abstract: According to embodiments, a second control unit creates parity from information loaded into a volatile second memory. When shifting from a normal mode to a sleep mode, the second control unit stores the created parity and the information loaded in the second memory into a buffer of a non-volatile first memory, and issues a power supply shutdown request. A power supply circuit shuts down power supply to the second memory and the second control unit in response to the issued power supply shutdown request.
