    Abstract: Communication systems and communication methods capable of evaluating a voice quality in a voice communication of a communication network and a presence or absence of a call drop of the voice communication are provided. A voice communication of transceiving a test signal for voice communication quality evaluation between a communication terminal apparatus 100 and a voice communication evaluation system 400 via the communication network 300 is performed. A voice quality evaluation value is calculated based on the test signal before transmission and the test signal after reception in the voice communication. A presence or absence of a call drop of the voice communication is determined based on a presence or absence of reception interruption of the test signal.

    Abstract: A mobile object communication system is configured with the assumption that a base station is fixed. Therefore, signal quality becomes unstable if the base station moves freely. Provided is a control apparatus controlling a relay apparatus that is mounted in a mobile object and relays communication between a base station and a communication terminal, including a mobile object information acquiring section that acquires mobile object information indicating a state of the mobile object and a control section that controls the relay apparatus based on the mobile object information. If the movement speed of the mobile object is judged to be less than a predetermined value, the control section may generate a relay control signal indicating that a relay function of the relay apparatus is to be activated.

    Abstract: Provided is a repeater-type radio relay system that can prevent loop interference of radio waves with the same frequency and does not require a frequency for relaying. The radio relay system is provided with one or more optical fibers for relaying an optical communication between a relay-source radio relay apparatus and a relay-destination radio relay apparatus. The relay-source radio relay apparatus has a network-side communication section for communicating with a mobile-communication network side, and an electro-optical signal conversion section of relay source for converting between an electrical signal in the mobile-communication network side received from the network-side communication section and an optical signal propagating through the optical fiber. The relay-destination radio relay apparatus has a terminal-side communication section for wirelessly communicating with the terminal apparatus side, and an electro-optical signal conversion section of relay destination for converting between an electric signal in the terminal apparatus side received from the terminal-side communication section and an optical signal propagating through the optical fiber.
