Provided is a communication apparatus that flexibly switches execution/non-execution of FD. The communication apparatus includes the followings: a resource allocation unit that allocates, to another communication apparatus, reception radio resources in a predetermined frequency channel and allocates transmission radio resources at least partially overlapping the reception radio resources on a time axis; and a notification unit that notifies the other communication apparatus of information regarding the reception radio resources and the transmission radio resources. The resource allocation unit further allocates transmission radio resources at least partially overlapping the reception radio resources on a frequency axis.

Communication apparatus and communication method

Provided are a communication apparatus that is operated under a wireless communication environment to which a full duplex communication scheme is applied and a communication method. The communication apparatus includes a communication section that performs wireless communication and a control section that controls operation of the communication section and processing of a signal transmitted and received by the communication section. Upon receiving, through a downlink control channel from a base station, designation regarding a resource in which interference is to be measured, the control section conducts, in the designated resource, measurement of interference from another terminal. In addition, the control section further controls transmission of interference information obtained by the measurement to the base station.
