Electronic apparatus and communication control method
First Claim
1. An electronic apparatus, comprising:
- antennas;
a first radio communication unit which performs radio communication by a first communication system having an antenna switching function in response to a reception state of electronic waves when the first radio communication unit is connected to any one of the antennas;
a second radio communication unit which performs radio communication by a second communication system different from the first communication system when the second radio communication unit is connected to any one of the antennas;
a setting unit which sets priorities of connection to the antennas in the first and the second radio communication unit; and
a connection unit which connects any one of the antennas to a radio communication unit high in priority and connects the antennas not connected to the radio communication unit high in priority to a radio communication unit low in priority on the basis of the priorities which is set by the setting unit.
