Wireless communication device and wireless communication method

As a first slot transmitting notification from an electronic device to a host device, a second slot transmitting a coupling request and a third slot transmitting notification except the coupling request are provided, and whether or not to provide the second slot may be controlled. Accordingly, it makes it possible to control a period when the second slot is provided, namely a period when the coupling request is performed, prevent the host device and the electronic device from being coupled erroneously by the unintended coupling request, and couple the host device being a communication object and the electronic device appropriately.
