Communication apparatus, communication program, and communication method
First Claim
1. A communication apparatus comprising:
- a reception strength judgment unit configured to judge reception strength representing strength of a wireless signal which is received from one or a plurality of connection candidate communication apparatuses accessible to a wireless communication network, and which contains identification information for identifying a connection candidate communication apparatus;
an identification information acquisition unit configured to acquire the identification information allocated to a vicinal communication apparatus which is the connection candidate communication apparatus transmitting the largest value of the reception strength judged by the reception strength judgment unit; and
a communication unit configured to communicate with the vicinal communication apparatus using a packet containing the identification information acquired by the identification information acquisition unit.

Abstract
A communication apparatus includes a reception strength judgment unit for judging reception strength representing strength of a wireless MAC frame containing an IP address for identifying a connection candidate communication apparatus received from one or a plurality of connection candidate communication apparatuses accessible to a wireless communication network, an identification information acquisition unit for acquiring the IP address allocated to a vicinal communication apparatus which is a connection candidate communication apparatus transmitting the wireless MAC frame having the largest value of the reception strength, and a communication unit for communicating with the vicinal communication apparatus using a packet containing the IP address.

9. A communication program comprising:
-
a reception strength judgment process of judging reception strength representing strength of a wireless signal containing identification information for identifying a connection candidate communication apparatus received from at least one of connection candidate communication apparatuses which are accessible to a wireless communication network;
an identification information acquisition process of acquiring the identification information allocated to a vicinal communication apparatus which is the connection candidate communication apparatus transmitting the largest value of the reception strength judged by the reception strength judgment process; and
a communication process of communicating with the vicinal communication apparatus using a packet containing the identification information acquired by the identification information acquisition process. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A communication method comprising the steps of:
-
judging reception strength representing strength of a wireless signal containing identification information for identifying a connection candidate communication apparatus received from at least one of connection candidate communication apparatuses which are accessible to a wireless communication network;
acquiring the identification information allocated to a vicinal communication apparatus which is the connection candidate communication apparatus transmitting the largest value of the reception strength judged in the step of judging the reception strength; and
communicating with the vicinal communication apparatus using a packet containing the identification information acquired in the step of acquiring the identification information.
