Abstract: An apparatus for controlling a frequency analysis processing includes: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute a fast Fourier transform process that includes performing a fast Fourier transform operation on data of two groups into which sensor data sensed at a first sampling frequency by a sensor is divided, and execute a change process that includes changing, in a case where results of butterfly operations of the fast Fourier transform operation are similar between the two groups, a sampling frequency at which the sensor operates to a second sampling frequency lower than the first sampling frequency.
