A wireless communications apparatus used in a wireless communications
network consisting of multiple wireless communications apparatuses
mutually connected via wireless links includes (a) a buffer configured to
temporarily store information received from an adjacent wireless
communications apparatus or a user terminal located under the wireless
communications apparatus; (b) a routing control information processing
unit that estimates a node cost representing traffic at the wireless
communications apparatus and a link cost representing a radio condition
of the link to determine a transmission route based on cost information
reflecting both the node cost and the link cost; and (c) a routing
control unit that designates a next hop to which information accumulated
in the buffer is to be transmitted according to the determined
transmission route.
