Claim Text:
1. A network system, comprising: a plurality of communication units, wherein the plurality of communication units include a base station to which a terminal wirelessly connects, and a proxy server to which a terminal connects; and a communication log analyzer configured to connect to the plurality of communication units via a network, wherein the plurality of communication units generate communication log information, and transmit the generated communication log information to the communication log analyzer, the communication log analyzer is configured to: extract communication log information generated by the base station and communication log information generated by the proxy server, from the communication log information received from the plurality of communication units, estimate a location where the terminal communicates on a route where the terminal travels while communicating, based on the communication log information generated by the base station when the terminal connects to said base station, extract connection destination information when the terminal communicates, from the communication log information generated by the proxy server when the terminal is connected to a web server, and associate the location where the terminal communicates on the route where the terminal travels while communicating, with the connection destination information when the terminal communicates, wherein the communication log analyzer is configured to extract at least one of a first communication log information and a second communication log information, the first communication log information being generated by the base station when the terminal connects to the base station, the second communication log information being generated by the base station when the terminal disconnects the connection to the base station, the communication log analyzer is configured to use the extracted communication log information and distance information between the respective base stations so as to estimate a travel distance of the terminal, the communication log analyzer is configured to: calculate a travel time from a generation time in the extracted communication log information, the travel time being required for the terminal to travel between the base stations; and estimate a travel speed of the terminal based on the travel distance and the travel time, and the communication log analyzer is configured to estimate the route where the terminal travels while communicating based on route information and the travel speed, the route information including information on routes within each of transmission ranges of the respective base stations.
