Abstract: A communication control method used in a mobile communication system includes receiving, at a base station shared by a plurality of core networks from each of the plurality of core networks, an MBS service identifier indicating an MBS service provided by the corresponding one of the plurality of core networks; and transmitting, at the base station, MBS data belonging to the MBS service to a plurality of user equipments belonging to a plurality of Public Land Mobile Networks (PLMNs) corresponding to the plurality of core networks through multicast or broadcast. The MBS service identifier is a unique identifier independent of the plurality of PLMNs.

Abstract: A transmission-side PDCP entity performs PDCP concatenation processing of concatenating a plurality of PDCP Service Data Units (SDUs) and thereby generates a PDCP PDU including a concatenated SDU. A reception-side PDCP entity performs PDCP segmentation processing of segmenting the concatenated SDU included in the PDCP PDU into the plurality of PDCP SDUs. A first communication apparatus including one PDCP entity transmits control information used for control of the PDCP concatenation processing and/or the PDCP segmentation processing to a second communication apparatus including the other PDCP entity.

Abstract: In a first aspect, a communication control method is a communication control method used in a mobile communication system for providing a multicast broadcast service (MBS). The communication control method includes: transmitting, by a base station to a group including a plurality of user equipments, a group notification indicating activation of a multicast session corresponding to the group; and receiving, by the base station, a random access preamble transmitted from the user equipment in response to reception of the group notification. The transmitting of the group notification includes transmitting, by the base station, the group notification to each of a plurality of subgroups at different timings, the plurality of subgroups being obtained by dividing the group.

Abstract: According to an aspect, a communication device includes: a first communication unit for performing communication using a first communication scheme; a second communication unit for performing communication using a second communication scheme; and a control unit for processing the incoming call based on a status of the second communication unit.

Abstract: A mobile phone includes a communication module for establishing a master-slave relationship with another electronic device to perform communication. The mobile phone determines a carrying state and performs control related to the master-slave relationship of the communication module based on a determination result of the carrying state. By this configuration, the mobile phone can improve user's convenience with respect to the use modes of electronic devices between which the master-slave relationship is established. For example, when it is determined that the carrying state is a carried state, the mobile phone may make the communication module subordinate to the other electronic device.

Abstract: According to an aspect, a device includes: a display unit for displaying a screen; a sensor for detecting an inclination of the display unit; an operating unit for detecting an operation; and a controller. The controller changes an orientation of the screen depending upon the inclination detected through the sensor and the operation detected through the operation unit.

Abstract: A telemeter system in which information that has an effect on a state of communication between a terminal device and a central device can be readily and accurately reported from the terminal device to the central device. When a central device transmits a request signal for prescribed measurement result information to a terminal device, a terminal control component of the terminal device extracts the measurement result information from a measurement component, and transmits the measurement result information to the central device. When a communication component of the central device receives the measurement result information, a center control component stores the received measurement result information in a storage component. The state of communication between the terminal device and the central device is reported to an administrator as necessary.
