1. A communication control method executed by a user equipment, the communication control method comprising:
measuring a residence time of unsent data to be transmitted by the user equipment to a base station via a logical channel; and
allocating in a MAC layer of the user equipment, to the logical channel, a resource for data transmission based on the residence time,
wherein the allocating comprises:
allocating the resource to the logical channel preferentially over other logical channels to inhibit the residence time from exceeding a residence upper limit time configured for the logical channel; and
allocating, to the logical channel and when the residence time reaches a predetermined time, the resource that is larger than a predetermined resource regardless of priority configured for the logical channel, wherein the predetermined time is time shorter than the residence upper limit time,
the predetermined resource is a minimum resource guaranteed for the logical channel;
wherein the residence upper limit time is a variable parameter configured for the user equipment by the base station.
