Abstract

A wireless communication system includes: an in-vehicle unit mounted on a vehicle and capable of wirelessly transmitting an access signal when an operation unit is operated; a portable device capable of wirelessly transmitting a vehicle-specific authentication code on a condition that the access signal is received; and a determination unit capable of determining whether or not the authentication code is a regular authentication code on a condition that the authentication code is received. Start of a driving source of the vehicle is permitted or running of the vehicle is enabled when the determination unit determines that the authentication code is the regular authentication code, and a security mode in which a function of transmitting the access signal by the in-vehicle unit or a function of transmitting the authentication code by the portable device is stopped can be set by a predetermined setting operation.
