WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, WIRELESS COMMUNICATION CONTROL APPARATUS AND WIRELESS COMMUNICATION CONTROL METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM
First Claim
1. A wireless communication system, comprising:
- a plurality of wireless networks that includes a plurality of wireless communication apparatuses and a control station for performing time slot assignment to each of said wireless communication apparatuses in every predetermined transmission frame period coexist, each of said wireless networks comprising;
signal detecting means for detecting a signal from an other of said wireless networks;
time slot analyzing means for analyzing a transmission time slot on which guaranteed time slot transmission is performed in an other of said wireless networks on the basis of a signal detected by said signal detecting means; and
time slot assigning means that does not assign a transmission time slot on which guaranteed time slot transmission is performed in an other of said wireless networks to a wireless communication apparatus in an own wireless network.

Abstract
A communication terminal under the control of a wireless base station recursively has wireless base station capabilities in a parent network, constructs a daughter network within a scope of resources of the own apparatus assigned by the wireless base station, and assigns the resources to an other communication terminal under the control of the communication terminal having base station capabilities. This novel constitution allows to configure two or more networks guaranteed not to interfere each other, thereby allowing the coexistence of a plurality of personal area networks on a same frequency channel. At the same time, the novel constitution allows expanding a network area without increasing the scale of equipment.
