Abstract:
A receiver includes a first detector that detects a Received Signal Strength Indicator of a desiring signal wave transmitted from a transmitter, a second detector that detects a power of interfering wave generated by an external device, a transmission rate selection processor that selects a transmission rate, which is used to transmit a signal from the transmitter to the receiver, from among a plurality of transmission rates based on the detected Received Signal Strength Indicator of the desiring signal wave and a detected power of the interfering wave, when the second detector detects generation of the interfering wave, and a transmission rate notificator that notifies the transmitter of the transmission rate selected by the transmission rate selection processor.
