主权项

1. A wireless communication system comprising:
a management apparatus that manages a frequency available for wireless communication; and a base station that accesses the management apparatus via a terminal station, wherein the base station includes:
a terminal station mode to operate the base station as a terminal station, anda base station mode to operate the base station as the base station; wherein the terminal station includes:
a base station mode to operate the terminal station as a base station, anda terminal station mode to operate the terminal station as the terminal station; wherein when the base station operating in the base station mode is not able to access the management apparatus via the terminal station, the base station is switched from the base station mode to the terminal station mode, and the terminal station is switched from the terminal station mode to the base station mode; wherein the terminal station operating in the base station mode accesses the management apparatus to acquire information of the frequency, and establishes wireless communication with the base station operating in the terminal station mode, based on the information of the frequency acquired; and after wireless communication is established with the terminal station operating in the base station mode, the base station operating in the terminal station mode accesses the management apparatus through the wireless communication to acquire the information of the frequency; wherein after the base station operating in the terminal station mode acquires the information of the frequency from the management apparatus, the base station is returned to operating in the base station mode from the terminal station mode, and the terminal station is returned to operating in the terminal station mode from the base station mode, and wherein the base station returned to the base station mode establishes wireless communication with the terminal station returned to the terminal station mode, based on the information of the frequency acquired from the management apparatus during the terminal station mode.
