WIRELESS TERMINAL DEVICE, WIRELESS BASE STATION DEVICE, AND COMMUNICATION CONTROL METHOD

摘要

A communication system in which it is possible for a wireless terminal device to perform an operation for intermittently stopping the monitoring of communication-control information from a wireless base station device, wherein by appropriately performing said operation, a favorable balance is achieved between communication stability and suppression of power consumption by the wireless terminal device. A wireless terminal device (202), wherein: a monitoring unit (21) is capable of performing an intermittent monitoring operation for periodically repeating an on interval during which communication-control information must be monitored, and an off interval during which it is acceptable not to monitor the communication-control information; and the intermittent monitoring operation is performed on the basis of operation-setting information which is from a wireless base station device (101) and which expresses the operation content of the intermittent monitoring operation. Furthermore, an operation request unit (23) reports operation-request information expressing the operation content of the intermittent monitoring operation to be executed to the wireless base station device (101).
