1. A radio communication method of connecting a base station with a plurality of terminal stations, the base station including a plurality of radio communication units compatible with a plurality of communication standards or communication schemes, the method comprising:
collecting, from each of the plurality of terminal stations, communication quality information representing a communication quality of the terminal station;
collecting, from each of the plurality of terminal stations, communication performance information representing a communication performance of the terminal station;
collecting, from each of the plurality of terminal stations, identifier information that identifies the terminal station;
calculating, based on the communication quality information, the communication performance information and the identifier information that are collected, a setting policy including a setting for each of the plurality of radio communication units, and a switching policy of setting a condition for switching the plurality of radio communication units; and
setting, for each of the plurality of radio communication units, the terminal station for which connection permission and switching are to be performed based on the setting policy and the switching policy that are calculated;
wherein the calculating further includes calculating a setting policy that disables a stealth SSID for one or more of the plurality of radio communication units and enables the stealth SSID for the other radio communication units, and a switching policy that performs connection switching of the plurality of terminal stations in accordance with a plurality of types based on a compatible communication scheme of each of the plurality of radio communication units.
