Abstract

A communication control method comprises: receiving, by a user terminal, from a base station, first information indicating a Device to Device (D2D) frequency available in a D2D discovery procedure for discovering a proximal terminal; and using, by the user terminal, not only the frequency indicated by the first information, but also a frequency not indicated by the first information. The frequency not indicated by the first information is different from the frequency indicated by the first information and is indicated by second information received from another cell different from a cell in which the user terminal exists.
