Abstract

See full text

A wireless communication apparatus operates as a tributary station in a wireless communication system including a control station and the tributary station that perform a time division multiplex communication. The wireless communication apparatus includes a wireless unit that performs a wireless communication with the control station; an event processing unit that notifies of an event occurrence based on an occurrence of an event; and a control unit that controls a communication in synchronization with the control station by detecting a control signal from the control station. When received a notification of the event occurrence, the control unit starts a search operation to acquire the control signal transmitted by the control station. When received the control signal, the control unit transmits a message according to the event occurrence using a slot that has a predetermined position relationship with the slot in which the control signal is received.
