A communication control device comprises: an antenna; and a control unit that controls wireless communication related to wireless power transfer to a power receiver device through a power transmitter device. The control unit acquires via the antenna a radio wave status of each of a plurality of channels related to the wireless communication. The control unit acquires a power transmission status of the wireless power transfer. The control unit sets, based on the acquired power transmission status, switching conditions for switching the channel according to the radio wave status. The control unit causes the channel to be switched based on the radio wave status and the switching conditions. The control unit causes the wireless communication to continue on the switched channel.
