AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing information communication terminals face prolonged communication interruptions due to inefficient network switching, necessitating frequent communication with a server device to determine network changes based on network quality, which reduces communication efficiency.

Method used

An information processing device that acquires location and communication quality information to generate annular boundary areas around the terminal, determining optimal network switching based on these factors and notifying the terminal of switching decisions.

Benefits of technology

This approach reduces communication frequency by predicting network degradation, minimizing interruptions and enhancing communication efficiency.

Abstract

The communication frequency will be controlled according to the feasibility of network switching. [Solution] The information processing device comprises a location information acquisition unit that acquires location information transmitted from a user terminal, a communication quality information acquisition unit that acquires communication quality information relating to the communication quality of a wireless communication network in a predetermined area, a determination unit that determines whether or not to switch the communication method of the user terminal, a generation unit that generates a boundary area which is a ring-shaped area surrounding the user terminal but does not include the vicinity of the user terminal, and a notification unit that notifies the user terminal of the determination result regarding whether or not to switch the communication method of the user terminal and information that identifies the generated boundary area. The generation unit generates the boundary area based at least on the area that does not satisfy the communication requirements identified from the communication quality information and the location of the user terminal identified from the location information, and the boundary area is the area in which the user terminal's location information is transmitted when the user terminal enters the boundary area.
