In a wireless communication system where packet transmission begins after a preparation process is performed between a source and a destination, the source stores, in a header of a preparation packet, first duration information corresponding to an end of a first response packet sent from the destination and second duration information corresponding to an end of a second response packet sent from the destination. A neighboring station having received the preparation packet sets a first NAV relating to a scheduled reception completion time of the first response packet based on the first duration information and a second NAV relating to a scheduled reception completion time of the second response packet based on the second duration information and ignores the second NAV when no packet transmission is detected within the first NAV period or within a predetermined time after the scheduled reception completion time of the first response packet. |
