Abstract
A wireless communication device communicates with, using a plurality of antennas, a communication partner device including a plurality of antennas. The wireless communication device includes a communication unit, an interference intensity judgment unit, and a determination unit. The communication unit communicates with the communication partner device using the plurality of antennas and is configured to use a MIMO (multiple input multiple output) scheme when transmitting a signal to the communication partner device. The interference intensity judgment unit judges, based on predetermined criteria, whether or not an intensity of an interference wave included in a received signal at the communication partner device is high. The determination unit prohibits, upon the interference intensity judgment unit judging that the intensity of the interference wave is high, the communication unit from using the MIMO scheme when transmitting a signal.
