    Abstract: The present invention improves efficiency of operator's work by automating template registration of an unregistered transmission apparatus. A transmission apparatus recognition apparatus includes a receiving unit, a recognition unit, and a template feature registration unit. The receiving unit receives a signal wirelessly transmitted from a transmission apparatus. The recognition unit calculates a degree of similarity between a sample feature generated from a received signal received by the receiving unit and template features registered in advance, compares the degree of similarity with recognition threshold value, and thereby recognizes the transmission apparatus. The template feature registration unit generates a template feature from a sample feature that failed to be recognized by the recognition unit.
