Abstract
A communication apparatus includes an antenna, a driving unit, a reading control unit, an acquisition unit, and a setting unit. The driving unit is configured to move a relative position of the antenna relative to one or more wireless tags. The measurement control unit is configured to control measurement of tag data of the one or more wireless tags based on reception of radio waves from the one or more wireless tags by the antenna. The acquisition unit is configured to acquire the number of the one or more wireless tags based on the measurement of the tag data of the one or more wireless tags that is accompanied by the movement of the relative position at a first moving speed. The setting unit is configured to set a second moving speed of the relative position based on the acquired number of the one or more wireless tags. The measurement control unit controls measurement of the tag data of the one or more wireless tags that is accompanied by movement of the relative position at the set second moving speed.
