COMMUNICATION DEVICE AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

According to one embodiment, device includes first unit, second unit, managing unit, and determining unit. The device is connected with terminals via a wireless line and delivers content to the terminals. The first unit performs connection process with respect to the terminal. The second unit performs communication with the external device. The managing unit identifies each of the terminals, and stores and manages terminal information representing a delivery status of the content to the each of the terminals. The determining unit determines, from among terminals in which terminal information is managed in the managing unit and to which the content has not been delivered, a terminal that is to perform the connection process through the first unit based on an estimation value of a remaining time in which each of the terminals is able to stay in a communication area connectable via the wireless line.

主权项

1. A communication device that is connected with a plurality of terminals via a wireless line and delivers content stored in an external device connected to the communication device via a wired line to the terminals, comprising:
a first transmission and reception processing unit that performs a connection process with respect to at least one of the terminals in order to deliver the content stored in the external device; a second transmission and reception processing unit that performs communication with the external device; a terminal information managing unit that identifies each of the terminals, and stores and manages terminal information representing a delivery status of the content with respect to the each of the terminals; and a terminal connection determining unit that determines, from among a plurality of terminals in which terminal information is managed in the terminal information managing unit and to which the content has not been delivered yet, a terminal that is to perform the connection process through the first transmission and reception processing unit based estimation values of remaining times during which the each of the terminals is able to stay in a communication area connectable via the wireless line.
