  • Publication number: 20080318642
    Abstract: A communication apparatus includes: a battery; a battery level detecting unit which detects a remaining battery level of the battery; a transmitting unit which transmits data; a wait time setting unit which determines an upper limit value from a minimum upper limit value to a maximum upper limit value for a random number generation range, generates a random number up to the upper limit value, and sets a wait time for transmitting the data on the basis of the random number; and a control unit which sets the minimum and maximum upper limit value for the random number generation range on the wait time setting unit. The control unit sets at least one of the minimum and maximum upper limit value in a different manner from a normal control time in case that the control unit receives data indicating that the remaining battery level is detected to be low.
