Abstract
In order to dynamically vary a pacing threshold and perform pacing control such that there is no bias in the stress applied to a user, a statistical information processing means: acquires statistical information of a mid-communication disconnect in which a user terminal disconnects in the midst of communications, in respect to communications according to an application protocol; calculates a degree of user dissatisfaction for each application protocol on the basis of the statistical information; and manages, for each application protocol, a pacing threshold corresponding to the degree of user dissatisfaction. A call processing means determines a pacing threshold for each application protocol such that communication traffic to a user terminal does not exceed a prescribed band upper limit and the degree of user dissatisfaction of each application protocol is the same, and executes pacing processing such that the communication traffic of each application protocol is below the determined pacing threshold.
