Patent ID: 8081727

Claim:
A radio communication apparatus connected to a device including a digital signal processing unit generating a clock signal, the radio communication apparatus comprising: an acquisition unit configured to acquire frequency information concerning the clock signal from the digital signal processing unit; a first measurement unit configured to measure a signal power in a first frequency band; a comparison unit configured to compare the signal power with a threshold; a first selection unit configured to select, from the first frequency band, a second frequency band necessary for data communication, a bandwidth of the first frequency band whose signal power is lower than the threshold being more than a bandwidth of the second frequency band; a second selection unit configured to select a first communication scheme from a plurality of communication schemes of the data communication according to the frequency information; and a communication unit configured to use the first communication scheme to perform the data communication in the second frequency band, wherein the second selection unit inserts a null signal into a sub-carrier corresponding to a width N times a frequency modulation width of clock modulation around a frequency N (N is a natural number) times a center frequency of the clock signal, when the data communication is performed using a frequency band which include N times the center frequency and when the width N times corresponding to the center frequency is equal to or less than a width threshold.
