Abstract:
For selection of a wireless access point, a terminal apparatus is configured to include a transmitter transmitting terminal information to a communication control apparatus, a receiver receiving access point candidate information from the communication control apparatus, a bandwidth estimator estimating current bandwidth associated with each of the candidate wireless access points included in the access point candidate information, and an access point selector selecting at least one wireless access point for communication from the candidate wireless access points included in the access point candidate information. Terminal information includes information on a communication location where the terminal apparatus communicates with the communication control apparatus and the access point candidate information includes information on candidate wireless access points for the communication location and past bandwidth information acquired associated with each of the candidate wireless access points. The wireless access point is selected based on past bandwidth information and estimated current bandwidth.

Claim (Index 9):
A terminal apparatus configured to select a wireless access point to be used for communication from a plurality of connectable wireless access points by communicating with a communication control apparatus for communication control, comprising:\n a transmitter for transmitting terminal information to the communication control apparatus wherein the terminal information includes information on a communication location where the terminal apparatus communicates with the communication control apparatus; a receiver for receiving access point candidate information from the communication control apparatus wherein the access point candidate information includes information on candidate wireless access points for the communication location; and a processor, wherein the processor measures a communication quality associated with each wireless access point included in the access point candidate information, and selects at least one wireless access point to be used for communication from the candidate wireless access points included in the access point candidate information, wherein the transmitter further transmits information on the measured communication quality to the communication control apparatus, wherein the receiver receives information on bandwidth associated with each of the wireless access points from the communication control apparatus, the bandwidth being estimated based on the information on the communication quality, and wherein the processor selects the at least one wireless access point based on the estimated bandwidth.
