Abstract: A communication apparatus transmits a request signal to an apparatus operating in a second operation mode among operation modes including a first operation mode using a first wireless communication unit and the second operation mode using a second wireless communication unit operable with lower power consumption than the first wireless communication unit. The request signal for causes the apparatus to transition from the second operation mode to the first operation mode. The communication apparatus determines whether transmitting the request signal is prioritized, and decides a parameter in the request signal that is used to avoid an access conflict in a wireless communication band, based on a result of the decision.
