Abstract: A wireless communication apparatus includes a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to calculate a variation amount based on a frequency difference between a first clock signal in a first synchronous processing apparatus and a second clock signal in the wireless communication apparatus according to a first message exchanged between the first synchronous processing apparatus and the wireless communication apparatus, calculate a correction amount based on a phase difference between a first time in a second synchronous processing apparatus and a second time in the wireless communication apparatus according to a second message exchanged between the second synchronous processing apparatus and the wireless communication apparatus, and when a failure is detected in the first synchronous processing apparatus based on the variation amount and the correction amount, switch an object for synchronization from the first synchronous processing apparatus to the second synchronous processing apparatus.

Abstract: A communication apparatus performs encryption on data transmitted from another communication apparatus by using first or second cryptographic algorithm, or performs decryption on the data that has been encrypted using the first or second cryptographic algorithm, by using one of the first and second cryptographic algorithms used for the encryption, where the second cryptographic algorithm provides a higher security level than the first cryptographic algorithm. The communication apparatus includes an encryption unit configured to perform, upon receiving the data including a cryptographic class identifying a parameter to be used for performing the encryption or the decryption, the encryption or the decryption by using one of the first and second cryptographic algorithms, based on the cryptographic class.
