Information processing apparatus, power source control method of information processing apparatus and program

摘要

Provided is an information processing apparatus including an IC module that performs communication with an external apparatus, a detection unit that detects an electric wave, a timer that measures a time course after being started, a power supply unit that supplies a power source to the IC module, and a control unit that controls a supply amount of the power source based on a detection result of the electric wave and a determination result of a value of the timer. The control unit starts the timer after terminating communication with the external apparatus, restarts the timer every time a transmission start of an electric wave is detected, in response to detection of an electric wave received from an outside at a predetermined interval in the detection unit.

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
an IC module configured to communicate with an external apparatus; a detection unit configured to detect carrier wave transmission by the external apparatus; a power supply configured to supply a power source to the IC module; and a control unit configured to determine a start of the carrier wave transmission and control an amount of the power source, wherein the control unit is further configured to cause the information processing apparatus to transit to a standby state by lowering the power source when a first predetermined time elapses after an end of communication with the external apparatus without determining a start of the carrier wave transmission.
