Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed herein to provide an information processing apparatus and a control method which do not cause a reduction in the output of radio waves when a human body is not approaching. A communication unit communicates with other devices wirelessly, a detection unit detects a physical quantity varying with the approach of an object, and a control unit causes the communication unit to reduce the output of radio waves when the amount of change in physical quantity exceeds a predetermined threshold value. When a predetermined member is in a position to approach a first chassis on which the communication unit and the detection unit are mounted, the control unit compensates for a change in physical quantity detected by the detection unit due to the approach of the member.

Abstract: In a 5G or 6G wireless network, a user device that wishes to transmit an uplink message must first transmit a scheduling request to the base station, generally in an allocated time-frequency region sized according to the number of user devices. In general, most of the user devices are not requesting access most of the time, and therefore most of the allocated region is blank. To reduce the amount of wasted resources, the base station can divide the user devices into sections, and allow the user devices to indicate which sections include at least one ready user device. Then, the base station can allocate a much smaller region containing only those indicated sections, and the ready user devices can send their requests in that smaller region. The base station can then determine which user devices request access, provide them with grants, and receive their messages.

The first network device updates a routing information base (RIB) using the route updates and updates a forwarding information base (FIB) using the updated RIB.
