Abstract
During communication by a mobile device, when a communication feasibility determining unit of an SGSN determines, based on a remaining communication volume, that the communication by the mobile device cannot be continued, an access point information extracting unit extracts APN information regarding an APN with an unused remaining communication volume and reports the extracted APN information to the mobile device. An access point information acquiring unit of the mobile device acquires APN information regarding the APN with an unused remaining communication volume. When communication is next initiated, the APN information regarding the APN with an unused remaining communication volume is transmitted to the SGSN to perform communication.
