1. A wireless receiving apparatus comprising:

  • a receiving-apparatus antenna for receiving signals transmitted from a first apparatus and a second apparatus via an antenna of each of the first apparatus and the second apparatus;

    a detection unit configured to detect information indicating a relative position between a first antenna of the first apparatus and a second antenna of the second apparatus with respect to a position of said receiving-apparatus antenna;

    a communication status obtainment unit configured to obtain, from the first apparatus or the second apparatus, communication status information indicating whether or not it is possible to transmit a video signal or an audio signal from one of the first apparatus and the second apparatus to the other; and

    a change information generation unit configured to generate, when the communication status information obtained by said communication status obtainment unit indicates that the transmission is not possible, change information based on the information detected by said detection unit and output the change information, the change information indicating a change direction for an orientation of the first antenna such that a communication range is closer to the second antenna, and the communication range being a range covered by the transmission of the video signal or the audio signal from the first antenna.
