WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE, WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, AND WIRELESS COMMUNICATION METHOD

摘要

If a wireless communication device used in this wireless communication system is a wireless relay terminal (201), the wireless communication device is provided with a timing information analysis unit (26) that analyzes timing information for intermittently received signals included in wireless signals, and relays the wireless signals in sync with the intermittent waiting for received signals in a wireless child terminal (301). If the wireless communication device is a wireless child terminal (301), the wireless communication system is provided with a timing information transmission unit (24) that creates intermittent reception timing information specifying the timing (intermittent reception timing) for intermittently waiting for received signals, and transmits the intermittent reception timing information to a wireless parent terminal (101) via the wireless relay terminal (201). Thus, increases in power consumption can be minimized with a simple configuration, and various types of communication can be carried out between a wireless parent terminal (101) and a wireless child terminal (301), even via a wireless relay terminal (201), at suitable times, in sync with the intermittent reception timing of the wireless child terminal (301).
