A communication apparatus includes: signal generation circuitry which, in operation, generates a control signal including a target reception power value regarding a target value of a reception power for the communication apparatus to receive an uplink (UL) response frame transmitted by each of one or more terminal stations, the control signal being a trigger frame that solicits transmission of the UL response frame from each of the one or more terminal stations; and transmission circuitry which, in operation, transmits the generated signal.
