<p>In a communication system, nodes are coupled to a transmission path in a bus topology. The nodes communicate with each other via the transmission path using communication signals that have a communication frequency and are synchronized with a power supply signal. Each of the nodes includes a coupling portion that transmits and receives the communication signal and the power supply signal using electromagnetic induction in non-contact with the transmission path. Each of the nodes determines whether a collision of the communication signals occurs on the transmission path based on a voltage level of a signal that has the communication frequency and is induced at the coupling portion.</p> |
