A wireless communication terminal comprises: a packet receiving unit for receiving a packet from a wireless base station; module for obtaining a transmission rate and a required transmission time from the received packet; module for calculating a time required to perform a packet transmission/reception procedure on the basis of the required transmission time; an analysis unit that functions as module for recognizing the existence of other terminal by decoding a destination MAC address described in the packet when the obtained transmission rate is equal to or lower than a transmission rate used by the wireless communication terminal; and a same-cell terminal list creation unit and band use time period scheduling unit for setting a band use time period that is equal to or greater than the time required to perform the packet transmission/reception procedure, for a time period, within a predetermined period corresponding to a packet generation period, regarding the other terminal and the wireless communication terminal, in order from the terminal having the lowest transmission rate.
