Next, the operation of the wireless system will be described. FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a connection management process performed by the wireless management device 20.

The wireless management device 30 determines whether the partner station 20 to which the state management device 31 is to be connected is busy (SP)
1). This determination is based on the signal S2 output when the partner station 20 operates.
Execute based on If the result of the determination is that a call is in progress (SP1-
YES), the state management device 31 sets the management information on the corresponding partner station 20 in the state management information to be unconnectable (SP3). On the other hand, if the partner station 20 is not talking (SP1-NO), the location registration information of the partner station 20 is searched (SP2).

If there is no corresponding location registration of the partner station 20 (SP2-NO), the management information on the partner station 20 out of the state management information is set to be unconnectable (SP3).

If it is determined from the above processing that the connection is possible, the state notification device 32 transmits to the mobile station 10 a station state determination signal S1 including information that the partner station 20 can be connected (SP4). On the other hand, if it is determined that the connection is not possible, the state notification device 32 transmits a station state determination signal S1 including information indicating that the connection is not possible to the mobile station 10 (SP
5). When the transmission of the information to the mobile station 10 of the transmission source ends, the wireless management apparatus 30 starts monitoring the mobile station 20 to be connected again (loop returning to SP1).

Next, the operation of the source mobile station 10 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. The signal receiving device 13 of the mobile station 10 receives the station state determination signal S1 sent from the wireless management device 30 described above and stores the information of the station state determination signal S2 in the other station state storage device 12. Let it be done (SP11). Next, in the mobile station 10, the transmission control device 12 determines whether there is a connection request to the partner station 20 to be connected (SP12). If there is a connection request (SP12-YES), the stored information is compared with the requested mobile station 10 (SP13). As a result of the comparison, if it is determined that connection is possible (SP13-N
O), a normal connection operation is performed from the signal transmission device 11 (S).
P15). On the other hand, if it is determined that connection is not possible (S
(P13-YES), the connection operation is interrupted, and no outgoing call is made (SP14).

The mobile station 10 starts receiving the station state discrimination signal S1 from the wireless management device 30 every time after a call ends or after a connection operation is interrupted. According to the above configuration, it is possible to prevent a call from being transmitted even though connection to the partner station 20 is impossible,
Power consumption can be reduced. (Second Embodiment) Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 4 is a configuration diagram of the second embodiment. As shown in the figure, in addition to the components of the first embodiment shown in the figure, the wireless management device 30 is provided with a transmission frequency counting device 33 for counting the transmission frequency. By providing the transmission frequency counting device 33, a function of restricting information (station state determination signal S1) transmitted from the wireless management device 30 to the mobile station 10 according to the transmission frequency of the partner station 20 is added. is there.

The transmission frequency counting device 33 measures the transmission frequency of the partner station 20 that has issued the connection request, and
It is determined whether the information (station state determination signal S1) is transmitted to the mobile station 10.

The connection management processing according to the above configuration will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. The same reference numerals as in FIG. 2 denote the same processing contents in the processing shown in FIG. First, the transmission frequency counting device 33 of the wireless management device 30
The transmission frequency of the partner station 20 is measured, and the state management device 31
This measurement result is compared with a predetermined transmission frequency standard. This reference value is set based on the transmission frequency of transmitting the connection possibility information (station state determination signal S1) regarding the partner station 20 to the mobile station 10. If you meet these criteria,
The information of the partner station 20 (station state determination signal S1) is transmitted to the mobile station 1
It is determined whether or not to execute a determination process (SP1 and subsequent steps) of whether or not to transmit to 0 (SP21). According to the above configuration,
It is possible to suppress transmission of information of low importance regarding the partner station 20 to the mobile station 10 and reduce the burden of information processing on the mobile station 10 side.

Further, the management load on the wireless management device can be reduced.

The radio management apparatus of the present invention manages the connection state of the mobile station radio apparatus and notifies the source mobile station radio apparatus of the information on the connection state of the mobile station radio apparatus to be connected to. Therefore, it is possible to notify the mobile station radio apparatus of the partner that cannot be connected to the mobile station radio apparatus, to suppress unnecessary transmission from the mobile station radio apparatus, and to reduce the load of connection management.

Further, if only the information on the connection state of the mobile station radio apparatus to be connected to which is frequently requested to be transmitted to the mobile station radio apparatus is notified, the connection request frequency is not so high. Since the information of the mobile station wireless device of the intended partner is not broadcast, transmission of information of a low importance connection state to the mobile station wireless device can be suppressed, and the burden of information processing on the mobile station wireless device can be reduced. Can also be
The use efficiency of radio waves can be improved.

The above effects can be stored in a storage medium as a communication connection processing program, and by only executing the processing on a computer, unnecessary transmission can be prevented on the mobile station radio apparatus side, and power consumption can be suppressed. Become like
