Abstract
A wireless transmitter/receiver generates a first signal which notifies timing of a time slot allocated to each wireless station device, a conversion unit converts the first signal into an optical signal, and each of a plurality of antenna units converts the first signal from the optical signal into an electrical signal and transmits the electrical signal wirelessly. The wireless station device transmits a second signal at the timing reported by the first signal. Each of the plurality of antenna units converts the second signal wirelessly received from each wireless station device into an optical signal, and the conversion unit converts the second signal from the optical signal into an electrical signal. The wireless transmitter/receiver calculates, for each wireless station device, a transmission delay by using a difference between a reception time of the second signal and a reception time of a signal transmitted at the allocated timing by the wireless station device when it is assumed that there is no transmission delay. The wireless transmitter/receiver determines guard time between the time slots allocated to the wireless station devices based on the transmission delays of the wireless station devices.
