    摘要: Electric power is distributed among wireless communication apparatuses while, at the same time, an electric power level required to operate a wireless communication function in the wireless communication apparatus is maintained. A wireless communication apparatus includes an electric power storage section, a wireless communication section, and a control section. The electric power storage section stores electric power. The wireless communication section engages in wireless communication with other wireless communication apparatuses by using the electric power stored in the electric power storage section. The control section controls passing of electric power stored in the electric power storage section by using the electric power level required to operate a wireless communication section as a threshold. At this time, the control section performs control such that electric power is passed to or from other wireless communication apparatuses according to a priority level assigned to each of the wireless communication apparatuses.

    摘要: The present technology relates to an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program that enable a base station to appropriately determine a terminal in charge of receiving processing. Priority of a base station in charge of receiving processing of the terminal among base stations that have received a connection request from the terminal is set for each of a plurality of terminals, and a charged terminal in charge of the receiving processing is determined for each of a plurality of base stations according to the priority of the base station. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a wireless communication system in which a terminal and a base station perform wireless communication.

    摘要: A plurality of sensor devices that senses environmental data at installation positions is appropriately arranged. Each sensor device includes a device detection unit, a position fixing unit, a sensor unit, and a transmission unit. The device detection unit performs operation of detecting another sensor device in the surrounding area and generates a detection result thereof. The position fixing unit fixes a position of the own sensor device on the basis of the detection result obtained by the device detection unit. The sensor unit senses environmental data at a position fixed by the position fixing unit. The transmission unit transmits the data sensed by the sensor unit.
