Abstract
A communication apparatus that wirelessly communicates with a partner apparatus performs, based on information related to a distance between another communication apparatus and the partner apparatus, determination of whether to execute cooperative communication of operating to reduce influence of interference between communication between the communication apparatus and the partner apparatus, and communication with the other communication apparatus, and controls communication based on a result of the determination.
Claims10
A communication apparatus that performs communication using a radio frame compliant with IEEE802.11 standard with a partner apparatus, comprising:
- a determination unit configured to perform, based on information about a distance between another communication apparatus and the partner apparatus, determination of whether to execute cooperative communication of operating to reduce influence of interference between communication between the communication apparatus and the partner apparatus, and communication with the other communication apparatus;
- and
- a control unit configured to control communication based on a result of the determination.
A control method executed by a communication apparatus that performs communication using a radio frame compliant with IEEE802.11 standard with a partner apparatus, comprising:
- performing, based on information about a distance between another communication apparatus and the partner apparatus, determination of whether to execute cooperative communication of operating to reduce influence of interference between communication between the communication apparatus and the partner apparatus, and communication with the other communication apparatus;
- and
- controlling communication based on a result of the determination.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that stores a computer-readable storage medium that stores a program for causing a communication apparatus that performs communication using a radio frame compliant with IEEE802.11 standard with a partner apparatus to perform a control method, wherein the control method comprising:
- performing, based on information about a distance between another communication apparatus and the partner apparatus, determination of whether to execute cooperative communication of operating to reduce influence of interference between communication between the communication apparatus and the partner apparatus, and communication with the other communication apparatus;
- and
- controlling communication based on a result of the determination.
