Abstract
To stabilize data communication with a small delay while keeping communication cost low, it is provided a wireless communication terminal, which is capable of coupling to a plurality of wireless communication systems, comprising: a transmission buffer configured to store data to be transmitted; a determination module configured to determine communication quality of the plurality of wireless communication systems based on a result of comparison between an amount of data stored in the transmission buffer and a given threshold; a selection module configured to control a number of wireless communication systems to be used to transmit data, based on a result of the determination of the communication quality; and at least one wireless interface configured to transmit data via the controlled number of wireless communication systems.
