Abstract:
1. A wireless communication device comprising: a plurality of antennas configured to perform an aggregated wireless communication including a plurality of wireless communications based on a plurality of wireless communication protocols simultaneously, each antenna being configured to perform each wireless communication based on each wireless communication protocol; and a processor configured to calculate, during simultaneous communication of the wireless communication protocols of the wireless communication device, an aggregated communication efficiency that is a communication efficiency of the wireless communication device in performing the aggregated wireless communication, the aggregated communication efficiency being determined based on an aggregated power consumption and an aggregated communication throughput, the aggregated power consumption being a total of a plurality of power consumptions for the plurality of wireless communication protocols in the wireless communication device in performing the aggregated wireless communication, the aggregated throughput being a total of a plurality of throughputs for the plurality of wireless communication protocols in the wireless communication device in performing the aggregated wireless communication, to continue the aggregated wireless communication when the aggregated communication efficiency exceeds a given value and to stop one of the plurality of wireless communication included in the aggregated wireless communication when the aggregated communication efficiency is equal to or less than the given value.
