Communication device, communication method, and program

摘要

A transmission device includes: a relay device information obtaining unit (101) which obtains self-device transmission status information that is information indicating a transmission status of a communication device; a neighboring communication device determining unit (102) which determines, from other communication devices connected to the network, neighboring communication devices; a neighboring communication device information obtaining unit (103) which obtains another-device transmission status information from each of the neighboring communication devices; a transmission rate control information correcting unit (104) which generates corrected transmission status information based on an amount of statistics calculated from the self-device transmission status information and the another-device transmission status information; a transmission rate determining unit (105) which determines a transmission rate of data, based on the corrected transmission status information; and a data transmission unit (106) which transmits the data according to the determined transmission rate.
