<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a wireless communication apparatus and a wireless communication method capable of improving a connection rate. <P>SOLUTION: The wireless communication apparatus has: a transceiver 21, 31 for transceiving data with an external device; a response packet generator 23, 33 for generating a response packet for informing of a successful reception of a packet transmitted by the external device; and a control unit 25, 35 for transmitting the generated response packet to the external device through the transceiver when the packet is received, and re-transmitting the response packet after a predetermined time when it is judged that an error occurred in the transmitted response packet. Accordingly, as the wireless communication apparatus can increase the chance for packet transmission while trying to connect with an external device, the rate of re-trying from initial set-up due to a failure of connection with the external device will be reduced. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO</p> |
