Abstract

A communication apparatus is capable of wirelessly communicating with a communication partner apparatus in a peer-to-peer mode. A state of supplying electric power to the communication apparatus is determined, and a group owner intent value indicating the degree of intent to operate as an access point in wireless communication is changed from a default value to a value depending on the state of the supplying electric power.
