Abstract
Provided is a communication device that determines whether Long Term Evolution (LTE) is to be included in scanning on a per area basis, enabling LTE to be effectively used, while minimizing unnecessary processing. The communication device is provided with a first communication control unit () and a second communication control unit (). The second communication unit () enables a setting so as to include a prescribed communication system in scanning, or disables the setting so as to exclude the prescribed system from scanning. The first communication unit () controls the second communication unit in such a manner that the setting is disabled so as to exclude the prescribed communication system from scanning if an overseas public network is being used by the second communication unit () to wait for communication.
