Abstract:
An image communication system includes an image transmission apparatus and an image reception apparatus. The image transmission apparatus includes a transmission-side wireless communication unit. The image reception apparatus includes a reception-side wireless communication unit. At least one of the image transmission apparatus and the image reception apparatus includes a radar detection unit configured to execute a detection process on radio waves of radar in a communication channel that has a possibility of being used for image data communication by the transmission-side wireless communication unit and the reception-side wireless communication unit. At least one of the image transmission apparatus and the image reception apparatus includes a channel use continuation unit configured to execute channel use confirmation for confirming that the communication channel is usable by continuously monitoring the detection process by the radar detection unit for a predetermined time.
