Abstract

A wireless communication system according to one embodiment is a wireless communication system including: one or more wireless terminals capable of communicating by both a first communication scheme using a first frequency band and a second communication scheme using a second frequency band, which is higher than the first frequency band; and a multi-device compatible base station that accommodates the wireless terminals, and the wireless communication system includes: number-of-times measurement circuitry configured to measure the number of retries for attempting communication by the second communication scheme; and a controller to perform control such that the base station performs wireless communication by the first communication scheme without using the second communication scheme until a predetermined time elapses with respect to a wireless terminal in which the number of times measured by the number-of-times measurement circuitry exceed a predetermined number of times.

Claims (16)

1 . A wireless communication system including: one or more wireless terminals capable of communicating by both a first communication scheme using a first frequency band and a second communication scheme using a second frequency band, which is higher than the first frequency band; and a multi-device compatible base station that accommodates the wireless terminals, the wireless communication system comprising:

number-of-times measurement circuitry configured to measure the number of retries for attempting communication by the second communication scheme; and

a controller to perform control such that the base station performs wireless communication by the first communication scheme without using the second communication scheme until a predetermined time elapses with respect to a wireless terminal in which the number of times measured by the number-of-times measurement circuitry exceed a predetermined number of times.

2 . The wireless communication system according to claim 1 , wherein

the first communication scheme and the second communication scheme are wireless communication schemes conforming to a standard of a wireless LAN.

3 . A wireless communication method for controlling one or more wireless terminals capable of communicating by both a first communication scheme using a first frequency band and a second communication scheme using a second frequency band, which is higher than the first frequency band, and a multi-device compatible base station that accommodates the wireless terminals, the wireless communication method comprising:

measuring the number of retries for attempting communication by the second communication scheme; and

performing control such that the base station performs wireless communication by the first communication scheme without using the second communication scheme until a predetermined time elapses with respect to a wireless terminal in which the measured number of times exceeds a predetermined number of times.

4 . The wireless communication method according to claim 3 , wherein

the first communication scheme and the second communication scheme are wireless communication schemes conforming to a standard of a wireless LAN.

5 . A multi-device compatible base station that accommodates one or more wireless terminals capable of communicating by both a first communication scheme using a first frequency band and a second communication scheme using a second frequency band, which is higher than the first frequency band, the base station comprising:

number-of-times measurement circuitry configured to measure the number of retries for attempting communication by the second communication scheme; and

a controller to perform control such that the base station performs wireless communication by the first communication scheme without using the second communication scheme until a predetermined time elapses with respect to a wireless terminal in which the number of times measured by the number-of-times measurement circuitry exceed a predetermined number of times.

6 . The base station according to claim 5 , wherein

the first communication scheme and the second communication scheme are wireless communication schemes conforming to a standard of a wireless LAN.

7 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a control program for causing a computer to function as each circuitry of the base station according to claim 5 .
