Further, if the gaps are dropped consecutively, it may indicate that the gap configuration of this gap is not correct and the operation in this gap cannot be performed. Therefore, an upper limit can be set to the operation period by defining a maximum number for the number of groups of operation window during which one or more gap is dropped. If the number of groups of operation window during which one or more gap is dropped exceeds the maximum number, the operation period is no longer lengthened and the operation in the gaps on NW B can be stopped.
