Abstract

A communication control method pertaining to an embodiment of the present invention is for controlling dual connectivity communication which uses a master base station that establishes RRC connection with a user terminal and a secondary base station that provides a supplementary wireless resource to the user terminal. The communication control method comprises: a step in which the master base station receives, from the user terminal, a measurement report which includes measurement results found for each cell in the user terminal; and a step in which the secondary base station receives, from the master base station, a supplementary request for requesting the allocation of resources to the user terminal. In the step for receiving a supplementary request, the master base station includes, in the supplementary request, measurement results for a cell of the secondary base station which is included in the measurement results, and transmits the same.
