COMMUNICATION DEVICE, COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, COMMUNICATION DEVICE CONTROL METHOD, AND COMMUNICATION DEVICE CONTROL PROGRAM

摘要

In order to stop a receive operation without stopping the communication operation of an external communication device while suppressing the effects on the reception of signals from the communication device as much as possible, a communication device includes: a transmission unit for transmitting a first signal during a specified time interval to an external communication device provided with a stop transmission function; and a reception unit which is provided with a stop reception function for stopping reception, and receives a second signal transmitted by the external communication device. The communication device also includes a stop transmission request unit which includes in the first signal stop transmission request information for requesting the stopping of the transmission of the second signal to the external communication device; and a stop reception unit which stops the receive operation of the reception unit after the first signal including the stop transmission request information is transmitted.
