1. A base station management method comprising:
creating a list of base stations that can cover an entirety or part of a coverage area of a failed base station based on at least in part of base station information which comprises: wireless modulation schemes that can be implemented by the base stations; scheduled time periods for implementation of the wireless modulation schemes by the base stations; and coverage areas of the base stations in which wireless terminals can be accommodated;
selecting a base station that can implement a wireless modulation scheme of the failed base station during a scheduled implementation time period of the failed base station from the list; and
setting the base station selected in the selecting so as to provide the implementation-scheduled wireless modulation scheme to the coverage area of the failed base station during the scheduled implementation time period.
