Abstract: A mobile communication system in which a mobile station copies data and transmits that copied data to a plurality of base stations, each base station sends that copied data to a serving radio network control device (S-RNC) directly or via a drift radio network control device (D-RNC), and the S-RNC selectively combines and outputs the received copied data; wherein a congestion monitoring unit monitors the congestion state of a line between the D-RNC and S-RNC, and when that line is congested, a D-RNC selectively combines the copied data that is inputted from the plurality of base stations and sends the result to that line, and when the line is not congested, the D-RNC sends the copied data that is inputted from the plurality of base stations to the line without performing selective combination.

Abstract: There is provided a mobile apparatus including: an input module including operating keys; a storage module configured to store a correspondence between a combination of a first operation and a second operation and a corresponding character, the second operation being an operation subsequent to the first operation, the first operation being an operation at a first operating key from among the operating keys, the second operation being an operation at a second operating key from among the operating keys; an extraction module configured to extract the character based on the first and the second operating keys referring to the correspondence; and a display module including a first display area; wherein the display module is configured to display the character extracted by the extraction module in the first display area.

Abstract: A communication method for use in a radio communications system in which a mobile station sends identical data to a plurality of radio base stations in a parallel fashion. The method determines which radio base stations should stop forwarding data to an intermediate network device managing them. The intermediate network device includes a monitor and a controller. The monitor checks continuity of sequence numbers affixed to data received from each radio base station, thereby detecting missing sequence numbers. Based on the statistics of missing sequence numbers, the controller selects which radio base station should be allowed to continue its data forwarding operation. The controller then requests the other, non-selected radio base stations to stop their data forwarding operation.

Abstract: In a network of a variable length packet system, a bps calculator colors an inputted packet based on a peak bandwidth or a committed bandwidth of a data bit number per unit time for every flow and a packet length of the inputted packet, a pps calculator colors the inputted packet based on a peak bandwidth or a committed bandwidth of a packet number per unit time for every flow and a packet number of the inputted packet, and one of a color of packet to be discarded, a color of packet to be passed and a color of packet to be discarded with a probability, within the colors obtained by colorings at both calculators is determined by a color selector.
