Abstract
A wireless communication apparatus that conducts full-duplex wireless communication with a communication partner using a transmitting antenna and a receiving antenna is provided. The apparatus includes a transmitting unit configured to transmit a signal via the transmitting antenna using a first frequency channel, a receiving unit configured to receive a signal via the receiving antenna using a second frequency channel different from the first frequency channel, and a control unit configured to control beam angle of directionality of at least one of the transmitting antenna and the receiving antenna, so that a direction of a communication path of a signal which the transmitting unit transmits and the communication partner receives, and a direction of a communication path of a signal which the communication partner transmits and the receiving unit receives, differ from each other.
