WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE AND TIME ACQUISITION METHOD

To provide a wireless communication device and a time acquisition method capable of acquiring time information from a portable terminal device even when a function of providing time information executable by the portable terminal device of a connection destination is different.SOLUTION: A wireless communication device 10 attempts to establish communication connection with a mobile terminal device 20 having time information. Next, the wireless communication device 10 determines whether or not establishment of communication connection with the mobile terminal device 20 has succeeded. Then, the wireless communication device 10 requests the mobile terminal device 20 to provide time information by using a function of providing time information that can be executed by the mobile terminal device 20 determined based on success/failure of establishment of communication connection with the mobile terminal device 20 to acquire the time information.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】接続先の携帯端末装置が実行可能な時刻情報の提供機能が異なる場合でも、携帯端末装置から時刻情報を取得することが可能な無線通信装置及び時刻取得方法を提供すること。【解決手段】本発明の一実施形態に係る無線通信装置１０は、時刻情報を有する携帯端末装置２０との通信接続の確立を試みる。次いで、無線通信装置１０は、携帯端末装置２０との通信接続の確立の成否について判定する。そして、無線通信装置１０は、携帯端末装置２０との通信接続の確立の成否に基づいて定まる、携帯端末装置２０が実行可能な時刻情報の提供機能を用いて、携帯端末装置２０に時刻情報の提供を要求し、時刻情報を取得する。【選択図】図２
