  • Patent number: 12231348
    Abstract: There is provided a communication control apparatus comprising a processor. The processor receives, from a first mobile communication apparatus, a request for permission of data transmission to a second mobile communication apparatus, the second mobile communication apparatus including a buffer memory to store received data. The processor determines whether to permit the data transmission based on a free capacity of the buffer memory and a reserved capacity indicated by a reservation setting of the buffer memory. The processor updates, when the data transmission is determined to be permitted, the reservation setting such that a capacity for received data corresponding to the data transmission is added to the reserved capacity. The processor transmits, when the data transmission is determined to be permitted, a response indicating that the data transmission is permitted to the first mobile communication apparatus.
