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. |
