In a system which performs wireless communication from an access point to stations using group identification information, the frequency of uses of group identification information that overlaps with that of another access point is reduced. An association between a station apparatus included in a group that is a target for simultaneous transmission and group identification information is stored, each station apparatus included in the group is notified of the group identification information, group identification information that is being used in the other access point apparatus is acquired, and if group identification information that is being used by the access point apparatus itself overlaps with the group identification information used by the other access point apparatus, the group identification information is changed so as to reduce the number of pieces of overlapping group identification information.

A wireless communication apparatus is provided that is capable of performing setting of a wireless LAN access point so that frequency utilization efficiency of an entire wireless communication system that includes wireless LAN access points of different manufacturers and different model numbers is improved. A wireless communication system which performs setting necessary for a wireless LAN access point constituting a wireless communication network to operate includes: an information collection unit which collects setting information set in the wireless LAN access point and wireless environment information in the wireless LAN access point, a parameter calculation unit which obtains a parameter to be set for the wireless LAN access point, which is a collection source, based on the collected setting information and the collected wireless environment information, and a parameter setting unit which transmits the obtained parameter to the wireless LAN access point, which is a collection source, over a network and performs setting of the parameter.
摘要:
Communication quality is prevented from being deteriorated due to interference caused by low accuracy of channel information or interference from another base station or another wireless communication system. A wireless communication system includes a first wireless station including a plurality of antenna elements, transmission units corresponding to the plurality of antenna elements, and a transmission directivity control unit that controls transmission directivity of the plurality of antenna elements, and a plurality of second wireless stations each including a reception power measurement unit that measures a reception power. The transmission directivity control unit determines the transmission directivity of each of the plurality of antenna elements so that a signal does not reach a particular second wireless station among the plurality of second wireless stations. The transmission units generate wireless signals using the transmission directivity. The plurality of antenna elements transmit the generated wireless signals. The reception power measurement unit measures the reception power in a period that is set so that a signal does not reach the particular second wireless station, and detect the presence or absence of interference.
