A base station includes a scheduling unit 120a and a call admission control unit 120b. The scheduling unit 120a includes a first determination unit 126 to determine whether or not a transmission frequency of transmission rate control data for decreasing transmission rate for uplink data is equal to or higher than a transmission frequency threshold, a second determination unit 127 to determine whether or not a counted number value of rate lowering event occurrences exceeds a counted number threshold, the rate lowering event being an event that decreases transmission rate for uplink data, and a setting unit 128 to set admission permission information to information for limiting an admission of a new call in a case where the transmission frequency is equal to or higher than the predetermined frequency, and where the counted number value of rate lowering event occurrences exceeds the counted number threshold. The call admission control unit 120b determines whether or not to permit the admission of a new call based on the admission permission information set by the scheduling unit 120a.
