That is, scheduling section 520 sets the upper limit value of the radio resource so that the upper limit value of the radio resource decreases as the degree of congestion increases.
- the upper limit value of the radio resource allocated to the radio terminal 100 is set to be small, so that it is consumed by the allocation of the radio resource to the radio terminal 100.
- the amount of radio resources can be reduced. Therefore, in a situation where the radio base station 500 is congested, radio resource allocation delay can be reduced by allocating radio resources to a large number of radio terminals 100 little by little. That is, it is possible to prevent radio resources from being allocated to one radio terminal 100 without limitation and to take time until radio resources are allocated to other radio terminals 100.
- FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation of the scheduling unit according to the embodiment of the present invention.

- the scheduling unit 520 sets an upper limit value of radio resources allocated to the radio terminal 100 based on the degree of congestion (S3).
- the upper limit value of the radio resource for example, the number of radio terminals 100 in which data to be transmitted to the downlink buffer in the radio base station 500 exists, and the radio resource allocation delay time in the radio base station 500
- the number of wireless terminals 100 having data to be transmitted to the downlink buffer is equal to or greater than the threshold set by the parameter
- the upper limit value of the radio resource to which the calculated value R_u is assigned may be used.
- R_all is the total number of radio resources
- t_delay is the radio resource allocation delay time
- t_threshold is a threshold set as a parameter.

- the parameters are stored in advance in a storage device included in the radio base station 500, for example. Further, as described above, the parameters may be set in the radio base station 500 by the maintenance / management server.
- the radio resource upper limit value R_u may be calculated separately for uplink and downlink. Therefore, the parameter related to the upper limit value of the radio resource allocation described above is also set separately for the calculation formula of the upper limit value R_u of the uplink radio resource and the calculation formula of the upper limit value R_u of the downlink radio resource. Also good.
- the radio resource upper limit value R_u is determined by Equation (2). That is, when the number of radio terminals 100 having data to be transmitted to the downlink buffer is less than the threshold, the total radio resource number R_all may be set as the radio resource upper limit value R_u. If the radio resource allocation delay time t_delay is equal to or less than the threshold value t_threshold in equation (2), the total radio resource number R_all is set as the radio resource upper limit value R_u. That is, when the total number of radio resources R_all is the radio resource upper limit value R_u, the radio resource upper limit value is substantially not provided.
- the radio resource allocation delay time t_delay is larger than the threshold value t_threshold in Equation (2)
- the value obtained by dividing the radio resource allocation delay time t_delay from the threshold value t_threshold is multiplied by the total radio resource number R_all.
- the value is set as the radio resource upper limit value R_u.
- the radio terminal 100 when the degree of congestion of the radio base station 500 (the number of radio terminals 100 in which data to be transmitted to the downlink buffer exists and the radio resource allocation delay time t_delay) is small, the radio terminal 100 When the upper limit value of radio resources to be allocated is set large and the degree of congestion of the radio base station 500 is large, the upper limit value of radio resources allocated to the radio terminal 100 is set small.
- the congestion level notified from the congestion level estimation unit 510 is a single value and is a binary value in a crowded state and a non-congested state
- the upper limit value of the radio resource allocation in the congested state may be set as a parameter in advance, or an arbitrary value can be set by the maintenance / management server as described above.
- an upper limit of radio resource allocation so as to correspond to each of the possible values of the multi-value.
- a plurality of values can be set as parameters, and the upper limit value of the radio resource is reduced as the congestion level indicates a more congested state.
- a fixed value for the radio resource allocation upper limit parameter may be incorporated in the radio base station 500 in advance, or may be set in the radio base station 500 by the maintenance / management server. Also, different parameters may be set for the radio resource allocation upper limit value separately for the uplink and the downlink.
- the number of radio terminals 100 to which radio resources are allocated for each radio resource allocation opportunity can be increased, and delay can be suppressed.
- FDMA Frequency Division Multiple Access
- the scheduling unit 520 allocates radio resources to the selected radio terminal 100 (S4).
- the amount of radio resources to be allocated may be, for example, the smaller of the amount of radio resources that can complete transmission of data to be transmitted that remains in the buffer and the upper limit value of radio resource allocation.
- the scheduling unit 520 determines whether there is an unallocated radio resource (S5). When there is an unallocated radio resource, the process proceeds to step S6 (S5: No), and when there is no unallocated radio resource, the allocation of the radio resource is terminated.
- the scheduling unit 520 determines whether or not there is a radio terminal 100 to which radio resources are not allocated (S6). When there is a radio terminal 100 to which radio resources are not allocated (S6: Yes), the process proceeds to step S1, and the radio terminal 100 to which radio resources are allocated is selected again. On the other hand, when there is no radio terminal 100 to which radio resources are not allocated (S6: No), the process proceeds to step S7.
- the scheduling unit 520 removes the upper limit value of the radio resource allocation for the radio terminal 100 for which radio resource allocation has been restricted, and adds the radio resource (S7).
- the radio terminal 100 is selected in the order in which the radio resource is allocated in step S4, and transmission of data to be transmitted that has remained in the buffer is finished until the radio resource runs out.
- Wireless resources are added to the wireless terminal 100 until the amount of wireless resources is reached.
- an upper limit value is assigned to the radio terminal 100 to which a radio resource is assigned by setting an upper limit value.
- the radio base station 500 controls the amount of radio resources allocated to the radio terminal 100 based on the degree of congestion. According to this, even when the radio base station 500 is congested, the amount of radio resources to be allocated to individual radio terminals 100 is reduced, and the occurrence of radio terminals 100 waiting for radio resource allocation is suppressed. be able to.
