Abstract:
Upon receiving, from a first other communication apparatus, a first acquisition request of requesting apparatus information relating to another communication apparatus that exists in a cluster, a communication apparatus transmits a second acquisition request that corresponds to the first acquisition request to a second other communication apparatus that exists in a cluster, determines a waiting time for awaiting a response to the second acquisition request from the second other communication apparatus, receives the apparatus information from the second other communication apparatus during the waiting time, and transmits the apparatus information received during the waiting time collectively to the first other communication apparatus.

Claim (Index 12):
A control method for a communication apparatus, the method comprises:\n receiving a first acquisition request, which is a request for acquiring apparatus information relating to another communication apparatus that exists in a NAN (Neighbor Awareness Networking) cluster, from a first other communication apparatus; transmitting, in a case where the first acquisition request signal is received, a second acquisition request signal that corresponds to the first acquisition request to the cluster; awaiting reception of signals from a plurality of other communication apparatuses in response to the transmitted second acquisition request signal, for a predetermined period; and transmitting pieces of apparatus information of the plurality of other communication apparatuses that are included in the signals received from the plurality of other communication apparatuses collectively to the first other communication apparatus.
