A wireless communication system includes at least one terminal apparatus and one communication apparatus which perform communication in a plurality of frequency bands. The terminal apparatus includes: a function information storing unit which pre-stores frequency band information indicating available frequency bands among the plurality of frequency bands and the number of simultaneously available frequency bands; and a terminal control unit which reads the frequency band information stored in the function information storing unit and transmits the read frequency band information to the communication apparatus via a first wireless communication unit. The communication apparatus includes: a base station control unit which selects at least one frequency band from the plurality of frequency bands based on the frequency band information transmitted from the terminal apparatus; and a second wireless communication unit which communicates with the terminal apparatus by use of the frequency band selected by the base station control unit.
