  • a beacon receiver which receives a first beacon signal transmitted from a communication party device by a proximity wireless communication, the first beacon signal including information related to a communicable area of the proximity wireless communication;

    a communicable area deciding section which estimates a distance to the communication party device by using the first beacon signal to decide a position of the wireless communication terminal; and

    a connection controller which uses a decided result of the communicable area deciding section, and does not connect the wireless communication terminal to the communication party device using the proximity wireless communication when the beacon receiver can receive the first beacon signal, but it is decided that the position of the wireless communication terminal is located outside the communicable area of the proximity wireless communication, and connects the wireless communication terminal to the communication party device using the proximity wireless communication when the beacon receiver can receive the first beacon signal and it is decided that the position of the wireless communication terminal is located inside the communicable area of the proximity wireless communication.
