Abstract:
A wireless communication device in a wireless network sets management information notification cycles at specified time intervals and transmits management information containing receive timing information showing its own position to start receiving information, receive window information, and receive cycle information. Another wireless communication device receiving that management information links it to a communication device number for the corresponding wireless communication device and stores the receive timing, the receive window information, and the receive cycle information. When sending information, the receive start position of the corresponding communication device is found from the receive timing information, the receive window information, and the receive cycle information of the other communication and information is then transmitted at that timing. An asynchronous ad-hoc communication wireless network can therefore be configured without a particular control station.
Abstract:
Provided are a communication apparatus and a communication method for transmitting and receiving wireless packets.A communication apparatus includes: a communication unit configured to transmit and receive a packet in a predetermined occupied band; and a partial band processing unit configured to provide a control signal area including predetermined control information in a part of the occupied band of the packet transmitted from the communication unit. The control information includes a plurality of synchronization signals at defined time intervals, and includes information for a third station that is not a destination of the packet, such as information regarding a NAV, a network identifier for identifying a network to which the communication apparatus belongs, transmission power information of the packet, allowable interference amount information, and remaining time information of the packet.

Provided is a communication apparatus, including a communication unit configured to receive a trigger frame including sub area information in which a sub area is specified from a resource area including wireless communication resources selectable as uplink resources and transmit a response frame to the trigger frame.
Abstract:
An information processing apparatus includes a control unit. The control unit controls transmission of an inducement frame for causing another communication device to transmit a transmission suppression period reduction frame for reducing a transmission suppression period. In addition, the control unit controls transmission of the transmission suppression period reduction frame on the basis of the inducement frame in a case where the control unit receives the inducement frame. Transmission suppression periods set in other information processing apparatuses are equally reduced to eliminate inequality in using wireless resources.

Abstract:
A wireless communication apparatus is provided that performs wireless communication using a specified wireless channel and forms part of an ad hoc wireless network. The device includes a recording portion that records country ID information and recording-time information in to a storage medium, where the recording-time information indicates the time at which the country ID information was recorded in to the storage medium, a time determination portion that uses the recording-time information to determine whether a predetermined time period has elapsed from the time at which the country ID information was recorded, and a channel setting portion that, when the predetermined time period has not elapsed from the time at which the country ID information was recorded in the storage medium, sets a wireless channel to a frequency channel that can be used in the country indicated by the country ID information recorded in the storage medium.

Another wireless communication device receiving that management information links it to a communication device number for the corresponding wireless communication device and stores the receive timing, the receive window information, and the receive cycle information. When sending information, the receive start position of the corresponding communication device is found from the receive timing information, the receive window information, and the receive cycle information of the other communication and information is then transmitted at that timing. An asynchronous ad-hoc communication wireless network can therefore be configured without a particular control station.
