Wireless communication apparatus, communication device, wireless communication method, and wireless communication control program

摘要

The objective of the present invention is a radio communication apparatus such that, in a radio communication apparatus that allows a plurality of communication settings, other communication settings can also be executed accompanying execution of one communication setting. In the present invention, a radio communication apparatus (100) performs a plurality of communication settings between a radio communication apparatus (200). A communication setting determination unit (111) outputs a setting flag indicating whether or not to perform a plurality of communication settings. A setting information exchange unit (113), on the basis of the setting flag input from the communication setting determination unit (111), exchanges setting information related to unset communication settings between the radio communication apparatus (200).

主权项

1. A radio communication apparatus that performs communication configuration for radio communication using millimeter waves with another radio communication apparatus, the radio communication apparatus comprising:
authentication key exchange determining circuity which, in operation, determines whether or not authentication keys need to be mutually exchanged between the radio communication apparatus and the other radio communication apparatus depending on whether or not both the radio communication apparatus and the other radio communication apparatus are allowed to perform the radio communication using millimeter waves based on first information relating to radio communication carried out by the radio communication apparatus and second information relating to radio communication carried out by the other radio communication apparatus, wherein the first information is one of a communication frequency band of the radio communication apparatus and a role in which the radio communication apparatus may operate, and the second information is one of Service Set Identifier (SSID), Media Access Control (MAC) address, a communication frequency band of the other radio communication apparatus, a role in which the other radio communication apparatus may operate, and Device Password ID; and authentication key exchanging circuity which, in operation, exchanges the authentication key with the other radio communication apparatus based on a result of the determination of the authentication key exchange determining circuitry.
