Abstract:
1. A wireless communication method for performing wireless communication between a base station and a wireless communication terminal, comprising: a reception state measuring step at which the wireless communication terminal measures information indicating a reception state of the wireless communication terminal; a first frequency band number determining step at which the wireless communication terminal determines a number of first frequency bands to be requested to the base station based on the information indicating the reception state; a transmitting step at which the wireless communication terminal transmits information indicating the number of first frequency bands to be requested to the base station to the base station; a receiving step at which the base station receives the information indicating the number of first frequency bands which is transmitted from the wireless communication terminal; an acquiring step for acquiring information indicating an upper limit of a value based on current consumption of the wireless communication terminal; a second frequency band number determining step for determining a number of second frequency bands to be assigned to the wireless communication terminal based on the acquired information indicating the upper limit of the value based on the current consumption; and a frequency band number setting step for setting the number of first frequency bands to a number of frequency bands to be assigned to the wireless communication terminal when the number of first frequency bands is equal to or less than the number of second frequency bands and setting the number of second frequency bands to the number of frequency bands to be assigned to the wireless communication terminal when the number of first frequency bands is greater than the number of second frequency bands.
