A relay terminal (2) transmits selection assistance information to a remote terminal (1). The selection assistance information includes a first information element transmitted from a base station (3) and received by the relay terminal (2). The first information element indicates at least one of: (a) a frequency band of the base station (3); a system bandwidth; downlink transmission power; UL/DL configuration; the number of cells provided to the relay terminal; a type of a cell; a RAT or a communication scheme used between the base station (3) and the relay terminal (2); and a name or identifier of a mobile operator providing the base station. This is thus, for example, possible to contribute to improving appropriateness of a relay selection.
