Abstract
A terminal () includes an Initiator functional unit () for acquiring information to be used for estimating position information of the terminal by performing frame exchange with a neighboring Responder terminal, a Responder functional unit () for providing the information to be used for estimating the position information of the Initiator terminal by performing the frame exchange with a neighboring Initiator terminal, and a control unit () for controlling the Initiator functional unit () and the Responder functional unit (). The control unit () estimates the position information of the terminal () based on the information acquired by controlling the terminal () to function as the Initiator terminal using the Initiator functional unit () and by controlling the terminal () to exchange frames with the neighboring Responder terminal, and then controls the terminal () to function as the Responder terminal using the Responder functional unit () and the position information.
