Note that the operation mode setting processing unit 226b may select a corresponding operation mode based on an input signal generated by a key operation on the same number key. For example, when the number key “2” is pressed, the operation mode setting processing unit 226b may select the license-free business operator priority mode.
- the terminal device 20b sets, based on the operation input, whether or not to perform location registration in preference to the network of the carrier that uses the license-free band identified by the carrier identification unit 222.
- the operation mode setting processing unit 226b is provided. With this configuration, the user can arbitrarily select whether or not to use the license-free band preferentially when performing communication.
- the communication system 1b may include at least one base station device 10 (FIG. 2) and a terminal device 20b.
- the control unit 22b includes a processing device and a main storage device, and includes a cell candidate detection unit 221, an operator identification unit 222, a network selection unit 223, and a location registration unit. 224 and the operation mode setting processing unit 226b.
- the cell candidate detection unit 221 (FIGS. 3, 6, and 8) measures an index indicating other signal quality instead of the intensity for each frequency band of the received signal, and the measured index is higher than the preset index. However, it is also possible to detect a signal having a frequency band component that is good. As such an index, for example, a signal-to-interference noise ratio (SINR: Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio), a peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR: Peak to Average Power Ratio), or the like can be used.
- SINR Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio
- PAPR Peak to Average Power Ratio
- the network selection unit 223 (FIGS. 3, 6, and 8) detects a plurality of operator networks that use only the license-unnecessary band, one of the detected networks may be selected. .
- the network selection unit 223 may select a network in which the above-described index indicating signal quality indicates the best signal quality, or a network in which the usage fee is most economical.
- the terminal devices 20, 20a, and 20b communicate with each other in any of the standby states. It can be carried out. For example, it is assumed that when the roaming is possible between the network X of the business operator X and the network Y of the business operator Y, the terminal devices 20, 20a, and 20b are in a standby state on the network X. When data is transmitted from the counterpart device to the terminal devices 20, 20 a, and 20 b via the network Y, the transmitted data is transferred from the network Y to the network X. The terminal devices 20, 20 a, and 20 b can receive data from the counterpart device via the network X.
- the terminal devices 20, 20a, 20b are provided with a SIM card 23 in which specific business operator information indicating a specific common identification number representing a license-unnecessary band and an identification number of the own device are stored in association with each other. Communication is always possible using the license-free band of the operator.
- curd 23 can be abbreviate
- a wireless communication system including a base station device and a terminal device, wherein the base station device transmits broadcast information including common identification information indicating a network operator using a license-unnecessary band to the terminal device.
- the terminal device is a wireless communication system that receives the broadcast information from the base station device and identifies a network operator using a license-free band from the broadcast information.
- the broadcast information includes network operator information indicating a network operator
- the network operator information includes the common identification information as operator number information of the network operator.
- a wireless communication base station comprising: a carrier information processing unit that transmits carrier information through the communication unit.
- a detection unit that detects a cell that may be located based on a received signal, and a network that indicates a network operator that uses a license-free band from the received signal received from the cell detected by the detection unit
- a terminal device comprising: a business operator identifying unit that identifies business operator information; and a network selecting unit that selects a business operator network indicated by the network business operator information identified by the business operator identifying unit.
- the base station devices 10 and 10a and the terminal devices 20, 20a, and 20b for example, the control units 12, 12a, 22, 22a, and 22b may be realized by a computer.
- the program for realizing the control function may be recorded on a computer-readable recording medium, and the program recorded on the recording medium may be read by the computer system and executed.
- Each functional block of the base station devices 10 and 10a and part of the terminal devices 20, 20a and 20b may be individually processorized, or a part or all of them may be integrated into a processor.
- the method of circuit integration is not limited to LSI, and may be realized by a dedicated circuit or a general-purpose processor.
- an integrated circuit based on the technology may be used.
- One embodiment of the present invention can be applied to a wireless communication system, a wireless communication base station, a terminal device, and the like that need to be efficiently connected to a network of a telecommunications carrier that provides a communication service using a license-free band. it can.

Abstract
Un dispositif station de base transmet, à un dispositif terminal, des informations de notification comprenant des informations d'identification communes indiquant un fournisseur de réseau qui utilise une bande sans licence, et le dispositif terminal reçoit les informations de notification du dispositif station de base et identifie le fournisseur de réseau qui utilise la bande sans licence d'après les information de notification. Ce mode de réalisation peut également être mis en œuvre comme un système de communication comprenant le dispositif station de base et le dispositif terminal.
