A communication apparatus includes a transition unit and a control unit. In a case where a wireless communication path to each of a first base station and a second base station is established, the transition unit transitions from an RRC_CONNECTED state to an RRC_INACTIVE state compliant with a 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) standard. In a case where the transition unit transitions to the RRC_INACTIVE state, the control unit performs control to selectively execute operating in a first mode for waiting for a notification signal from each of the first and second base stations or operating in a second mode for waiting for a notification signal from either the first base station or the second base station, based on a state of the communication apparatus.
