Abstract

A radio communication system where a connection between a controlled radio communication apparatus and a controlling radio communication apparatus is registered. A controlling radio communication apparatus sends vacant slot information indicative of a vacant time division multiplexing time slot to a controlled radio communication apparatus, the controlled radio communication apparatus sends a connection register request signal to the controlling radio communication apparatus using a vacant time division multiplexing time slot based on the vacant slot information, the controlling radio communication apparatus allocates the vacant time division multiplexing time slot to the controlled radio communication apparatus that sent the connection register request signal based on the received connection register request signal, thereby registering the connection of the controlled radio communication apparatus, and the controlled radio communication apparatus sends a control signal using the time division multiplexing time slot allocated by the first radio communication apparatus. With this structure, it is possible to automatically register a connection of a controlled radio communication apparatus.
