Abstract

Le but de la présente invention est d'empêcher le gaspillage de ressources lors de la réalisation d'un transfert vers une tranche. Le système de communication (N1) de la présente invention effectue une commande de communication sur un terminal de communication qui est connecté en communication avec la tranche, qui est un réseau virtualisé généré sur une infrastructure de réseau. Une SMF (221) détermine si la tranche est utilisée ou non dans une procédure de commande dans laquelle un UE (90) effectue le transfert. Ensuite, lorsqu'il est déterminé que la tranche n'est pas utilisée, une AMF (301) réalise une commande de communication visant à ne pas utiliser la tranche qui n'est pas utilisée.
