Abstract
A BSS to which a destination wireless communication apparatus of a physical layer frame belongs is identified, and accuracy of preamble detection is improved by changing a reception operation. A wireless communication apparatus includes a reception unit that detects a frame including information for identifying a BSS, and a control unit that switches between a first operation in a case where the frame is a frame which is associated with a BSS to which the wireless communication apparatus belongs and a second operation in a case where the frame is a frame which is not associated with the BSS to which the wireless communication apparatus belongs. Carrier sensing is not performed in the first operation, and the carrier sensing is performed in the second operation.
