摘要

A degree of congestion of a wireless communication service is accurately calculated. A wireless communication device includes a particular signal strength acquiring unit, a received signal strength acquiring unit, and a congestion calculating unit. The particular signal strength acquiring unit acquires a strength of a particular signal that is transmitted from a base station, and is to be referred to at a time of base station selection. The received signal strength acquiring unit acquires a strength of a received signal transmitted in the carrier frequency band from the base station. The congestion calculating unit calculates a degree of congestion of the base station by using the strength of the particular signal and the strength of the received signal.
