Abstract
A radio communication apparatus according to a first aspect is an apparatus for supporting cellular communication and wireless LAN communication. A protocol stack for the cellular communication includes: a cellular lower layer including a physical layer and a MAC layer; and a cellular upper layer higher than the MAC layer. The radio communication apparatus comprises a controller configured to set a specific mode using a protocol stack of the wireless LAN communication instead of the cellular lower layer.
Claims8
