Wireless communication system

摘要

A small-scale wireless communication system offering advanced security level. An encryption key memory of an access point stores an encryption key list of a plurality of different encryption keys. A change information transmitter periodically transmits change information to a terminal by radio, the change information requesting the change of encryption key. An encryption key selector selects an encryption key from the encryption key list under a rule when the change information transmitter transmits the change information. A terminal-side encryption key memory of the terminal stores a terminal-side encryption key list which is the same as the encryption key list. A change information receiver receives the change information from the access point. Upon reception of the change information, a terminal-side encryption key selector selects an encryption key from the terminal-side encryption key list under a rule which is the same as the rule which the encryption key selector used to select the encryption key.
