Abstract
A communication apparatus internally generates a virtual terminal (emulator) of a mobile terminal. The virtual terminal performs handover to a 3G network in place of the mobile terminal. In the event of an incoming call to the mobile terminal, the virtual terminal receives the call in place of the mobile terminal and notifies the mobile terminal of the call. Consequently, without having to perform handover, the mobile terminal is able to receive communication notification, whereby telephone communication by the mobile terminal remains enabled without the expenditure of power for handover, enabling a reduction in power consumption.
