1. A radio communication terminal, comprising:
- a communication unit which communicates using at least one channel in a first frequency band;
a channel investigating unit which investigates all channels in said first frequency band, detects an available channel in said all channels and outputs a detection result as available channel information; and
a channel setting unit which receives said available channel information, determines whether or not a plurality of channels adjacent to each other in said first frequency band are available for communication based on said available channel information, and sets a plurality of channels which are not adjacent to each other in said communication unit as channels which are available for communication in said first frequency band when it is determined that said plurality of channels adjacent to each other are not available for communication.

Abstract
A radio communication terminal includes a communication unit, a channel investigating unit and a channel setting unit. The communication unit communicates using at least one channel in a first frequency band. The channel investigating unit investigates all channels in the first frequency band, detects an available channel in the all channels and outputs a detection result as available channel information. The channel setting unit receives the available channel information, determines whether or not a plurality of channels adjacent to each other in the first frequency band are available for communication based on the available channel information.

17. A radio communication terminal, comprising:
-
communication means for communicating using at least one channel in a first frequency band; channel investigating means for investigating all channels in said first frequency band, detecting an available channel in all channels, and outputting said detection result as available channel information; and channel setting means for receiving said available channel information, determining whether or not a plurality of channels which are adjacent to each other in said first frequency band can be used for communication based on said information and setting a plurality of channels which are not adjacent to each other as a channel to be used for communication in said first frequency band when it is determined that a plurality of channels adjacent to each other can not be used for communication.

18. A radio communication terminal, comprising:
-
a communication unit which is configured to communicate using a plurality of channels which are to be bonded for communication, said plurality of channels include at least two channels in a first frequency band, or at least two channels in a second frequency band, or at least one channel each in said first and said second frequency bands; a channel investigating unit which is configured to investigate all channels in the frequency band to be used, to detect an available channel for communication in said all channels and to output available channel information as the detection result; and a channel setting unit which is configured to receive said available channel information, to determine whether or not at least two channels are available for communication in said first frequency band based on said available channel information, to determine whether or not at least one each of channels are available for communication in said first and said second frequency bands based on said available channel information when it has been determined that at least two channels were not available for communication in said first frequency band, and to set said at least one each of channels in said first and said second frequency bands in said communication unit as channels to be bonded for communication when it has been determined that said at least one each of channels in said first and said second frequency bands were available for communication. - View Dependent Claims (19)

20. A channel selecting method in a radio communication terminal which communicates using a plurality of channels which are to be bonded for communication, said plurality of channels include at least two channels in a first frequency band, or at least two channels in a second frequency band, or at least one channel each in said first and said second frequency bands, the method comprising:
-
investigating all channels in the frequency band to be used, detecting an available channel for communication in said all channels and creating available channel information as the detection result; determining whether or not at least two channels are available for communication in said first frequency band based on said available channel information; determining whether or not at least one each of channels are available for communication in said first and said second frequency bands based on said available channel information when it has been determined that at least two channels were not available for communication in said first frequency band; and setting said at least one each of channels in said first and said second frequency bands in said communication unit as channels to be bonded for communication when it has been determined that said at least one each of channels in said first and said second frequency bands were available for communication. - View Dependent Claims (21)

22. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium which stores instructions to enable a computer to carry out a channel selecting method installed in a radio communication terminal which communicates using a plurality of channels which are to be bonded for communication, said plurality of channels include at least two channels in a first frequency band, or at least two channels in a second frequency band, or at least one channel each in said first and said second frequency bands, wherein
said method comprising: -
investigating all channels in the frequency band to be used, detecting an available channel for communication in said all channels and creating available channel information as the detection result; determining whether or not at least two channels are available for communication in said first frequency band based on said available channel information; determining whether or not at least one each of channels are available for communication in said first and said second frequency bands based on said available channel information when it has been determined that at least two channels were not available for communication in said first frequency band; and setting said at least one each of channels in said first and said second frequency bands in said communication unit as channels to be bonded for communication when it has been determined that said at least one each of channels in said first and said second frequency bands were available for communication.
