Abstract

A communication apparatus is capable of communicating with another communication apparatus by a first communication scheme and by a second communication scheme for which a communication speed is faster or a communication range is longer than that of the first communication scheme. The communication apparatus, in a case where it is determined that the communication by the second communication scheme was already being performed, includes, in a response corresponding to a request received from an other communication apparatus, information indicating that control for the communication by the second communication scheme based on the request is unnecessary, and transmits the response to the other communication apparatus.
