1. A wireless communication apparatus, comprising:
- a transmitter circuit whose transmission power is set variably;
a wireless communication section having a receiver circuit; and
a processing section configured to execute a control of the wireless communication section,the processing section being further configured toset the transmission power of the transmitter circuit to a first transmission power when it executes normal data communication, andset the transmission power of the transmitter circuit to a second transmission power smaller than the first transmission power when it executes a pairing process,the processing section being further configured such thatduring an initial stage of the pairing process, the processing section sets the transmission power of the transmitter circuit to the second transmission power while it communicates a find packet for finding a device to be paired, andafter the find packet has been communicated, the processing section sets the transmission power of the transmitter circuit to a third transmission power larger than the second transmission power and communicates a pairing process packet for executing the pairing process,the processing section being further configured toset a unique address that designates a specific paired device as a destination determining address in a packet used for the normal data communication, andset a global address that does not designate a specific device as the destination determining address in the find packet,the processing section being further configured such thatafter it has communicated the find packet, the processing section sets the transmission power of the transmitter circuit to the third transmission power, communicates a communication setting packet in which the global address has been set as the destination determining address, and sets the unique address using the communication setting packet.

Abstract
A wireless communication apparatus includes a transmitter circuit whose transmission power is set variably, a wireless communication section having a receiver circuit, and a processing section that executes a control of the wireless communication section. The processing section sets the transmission power of the transmitter circuit to a first transmission power when it executes normal data communication and sets the transmission power of the transmitter circuit to a second transmission power smaller than the first transmission power when it executes a pairing process.
