Claim:
A communication control method for mobile communications in which packet communications are carried out between a mobile terminal and a base station, comprising the steps of: (a) judging a priority level of a traffic and judging a type of the traffic, at the mobile terminal; (b) generating, at the mobile terminal, a reservation signal for a transmission request only when the mobile terminal judges, at the step (a), that the type of the traffic is a high priority level or a realtime type; (c) transmitting the reservation signal from the mobile terminal to the base station when the mobile terminal generates the reservation signal at the step (b); (d) determining, at the base station, a resource amount to be reserved for packet transmission according to a resource utilization state and the reservation signal for the traffic of the high priority level or the realtime type when the base station receives the reservation signal from the mobile terminal; (e) determining, at the base station, an average transmission interval or a transmission rate for the traffic of a non-high priority level or a non-realtime type according to margins in remaining resources when the base station does not receive the reservation signal from the mobile terminal; (f) notifying the average transmission interval or the transmission rate determined by the step (e) from the base station to the mobile terminal when the base station determines the average transmission interval or the transmission rate; and (g) determining, at the mobile terminal, a transmission timing for packet transmission according to the average transmission interval or the transmission rate notified at the step (f), when the mobile terminal judges, at the step (a), that the type of the traffic is the non-high priority level or the non-realtime type.
