Abstract: In a transmission method using spectrum shaping, interference to other cells caused by an increase in transmit power of mobile station apparatuses is suppressed. A wireless control apparatus performs control in which at least one wireless terminal apparatus clips part of frequencies in a system band and locates a transmit signal. The wireless control apparatus determines frequencies at which the individual wireless terminal apparatuses locate transmit signals, so that an interference level of the entire system band is suppressed to be lower than or equal to a certain value. Also, the wireless control apparatus determines frequencies at which the individual wireless terminal apparatuses locate transmit signals, so that a total sum of frequency bands allocated to the wireless terminal apparatuses before clipping is smaller than or equal to the system band.
