DETERMINING APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM AND DETERMINING METHOD
First Claim
1. A determining apparatus for receiving each signal transmitted by one or more communication apparatuses, and determines a communication apparatus serving as a communication partner out of the communication apparatuses transmitted the signal received, the determining apparatus comprising:
- a receiving apparatus for receiving a signal,a processing apparatus for processing data,a signal receiving unit,an identification acquiring unit,a reception counting unit, andan apparatus determining unit; and
wherein the signal receiving unit, by using the receiving apparatus, receives each signal transmitted by one or more communication apparatuses, a plurality of times;
wherein the identification acquiring unit, by using the processing apparatus, based on each signal received by the signal receiving unit, acquires identification data for identifying the communication apparatus that has transmitted the signal received by the signal receiving unit;
wherein the reception counting unit, by using the processing apparatus, based on the identification data acquired by the identification acquiring unit, counts each number of reception times the signal receiving unit has received the signal, for each communication apparatus identified by the identification data;
wherein the apparatus determining unit, by using the processing apparatus, based on the number of reception times counted by the reception counting unit, calculates a difference in the number of reception times between one communication apparatus and another communication apparatus, compares the difference in the number of reception times calculated with a prescribed times difference threshold, and determines a communication apparatus having a more number of reception times as the communication partner, when the difference in the number of reception times is greater than or equal to the times difference threshold.

Abstract
A determining apparatus ensures an assurance value of reliability in the determination result for determining the correct tag. A signal receiving unit 121 receives a signal transmitted by the tag (the communication apparatus), a plurality of times. An identification acquiring unit 122 acquires identification data of the tag based on the received signal. The reception counting unit 123 counts a number of reception times the signal is received for each tag. The apparatus determining unit 132 determines that the tag having the more number of reception times as the correct tag (the communication partner) when the difference in the number of reception times is greater than or equal to the times difference threshold.

12. A determining method of the determining apparatus including a receiving apparatus for receiving a signal and processing apparatus for processing data, for receiving each signal transmitted by one or more communication apparatuses, and for determining a communication apparatus serving as a communication partner out of the communication apparatuses that transmitted the signal received, the determining method comprising:
-
for the receiving apparatus to receive each signal transmitted by one or more communication apparatuses, a plurality of times; for the processing apparatus to acquire identification data for identifying the communication apparatus that has transmitted the signal received by the receiving apparatus, based on the signal received by the receiving apparatus; for the processing apparatus to count each number of reception times that the receiving apparatus has received the signal, for each communication apparatus identified by the identification data, based on the acquired identification data; and for the processing apparatus to compare a difference between a number of reception times of a communication apparatus and a number of reception times of another communication apparatus with a prescribed times difference threshold based on the numbers of reception times counted, and to determine a communication apparatus having a more number of reception times as the communication partner, when the difference in the number of reception times is greater or equal to the times difference threshold.
