Abstract
There is provided a wireless communication device including a control-message creation/transmission-instruction unit which sends notification information via a wireless communication network and also sends response information in the case of receiving notification information sent from another device, a reception/interpretation processing unit which receives, from another device which has received the notification information of the wireless communication device, response information of such other device and also receives the notification information sent from such other device, and an operation mode determination unit which determines, based on operation mode determination information included in the notification information of such other device or the response information of such other device, that the wireless communication device is caused to operate as one of a master device and a slave device.

- A wireless communication device comprising;
circuitry configured to; send first request information via a wireless communication network using a first frequency; wait, from another device which has received the first request information, for first response information with respect to the first request information using the first frequency for a predetermined duration; send second request information via a wireless communication network using a second frequency in case the wireless communication device does not receive the first response information from the another device within the predetermined duration; wait, from the another device which has received the second request information, for second response information with respect to the second request information using the second frequency; receive the first or second response information from the another device; in response to receiving the first or second response information, send third request information including operation mode determination information of the wireless communication device indicating a priority index of the wireless communication device; receive third response information with respect to the third request information, from the another device, the third response information including operation mode determination information of the another device indicating a priority index of the another device; and determine, based on the operation mode determination information of the another device, that the wireless communication device is caused to operate as one of a master device or a slave device, wherein the first and second request information includes service set identifier (SSID) for a peer to peer connection. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
