A network controller comprising one or more processors and memories in order to make it possible to achieve both continuous operation of a route search system and energy consumption reduction or leveling used resources. The one or more memories store one or more programs. The one or more processors, by reading the one or more programs, realize a user terminal traffic information acquirer, a traffic demand predictor, a route information acquirer, a route determiner, an operating state information acquirer, and an activation request generator. A navigation route is determined from one or more route candidates based on traffic demand prediction information predicting future traffic demand based on user terminal traffic information. Each base station in an off state corresponding to each area on the determined navigation route is activated.
