Abstract

A communication relay apparatus of an embodiment includes an antenna, a signal intensity detector, a first search unit, and a second search unit. The antenna forms a beam of radio waves in an arbitrary direction. The signal intensity detector detects an intensity of a signal received by the antenna. The first search unit changes a direction of the beam formed by the antenna within a first range, and detects a direction in which the mobile station is located based on the intensity of the signal detected by the signal intensity detector. The second search unit changes a direction of the beam formed by the antenna within a second range narrower than the first range, and detects a direction in which the mobile station is located based on the intensity of the signal detected by the signal intensity detector.
