Abstract
A wireless communication apparatus includes a transmission/reception unit, a measurement unit, a physical layer, an acquisition unit, and a control unit. The transmission/reception unit transmits/receives packets to/from a communication peer. The measurement unit starts measuring a time period after a predetermined time from an end of the packet transmitted to the communication peer. The physical layer detects a synchronization code included in the packet transmitted from the communication peer and generates a synchronization detection signal. The acquisition unit acquires a measured value by the measurement unit when receiving the synchronization detection signal. The control unit has a function to change the physical layer to a physical layer with a different error tolerance, and calculates a propagation delay by subtracting a length of a synchronization code from the measured value and judges whether to update the physical layer or not depending on the propagation delay.
