<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce a probability to limit the number of clients to participate in a network by the shortage of a client allowable number in an apparatus which becomes a simple access point in the radio network. <P>SOLUTION: A radio communication apparatus 1 performs group owner negotiation for determining a group owner (a simple access point) with a radio communication apparatus 3. The radio communication apparatus 1 transmits a GO (group owner) negotiation request (S3), and the radio communication apparatus 3 returns a GO negotiation response (S4). The radio communication apparatus 1 transmits a client allowable number information request (S5), and the radio communication apparatus 3 returns a client allowable number information response (S6). When a GO intent value in the GO negotiation response is the same as the GO intent value of the self apparatus, the radio communication apparatus 1 allows the apparatus with the larger maximum connectable client number to be the GO. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
