US 2014/0273842 A1 · COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, AND COMMUNICATION METHOD

Abstract

Provided is a communication system that includes a plurality of communication apparatuses and that transmits and receives a connection request command between the plurality of communication apparatuses to establish a connection between the plurality of communication apparatuses, wherein a transmission source communication apparatus as a transmission source of the connection request command from among the plurality of communication apparatuses transmits transmission timing information that indicates timing at which the connection request command is transmitted, and a transmission destination communication apparatus as a transmission destination of the connection request command from among the plurality of communication apparatuses receives the transmission timing information transmitted from the transmission source communication apparatus and determines timing at which an operation of waiting for receipt of the connection request command transmitted from the transmission source communication apparatus is performed based on the timing indicated by the received transmission timing information.

A communication system that comprises a plurality of communication apparatuses and that transmits and receives a connection request command between said plurality of communication apparatuses to establish a connection between said plurality of communication apparatuses, wherein

a transmission source communication apparatus as a transmission source of the connection request command from among said plurality of communication apparatuses transmits transmission timing information indicating timing of transmitting the connection request command, and
a transmission destination communication apparatus as a transmission destination of the connection request command from among said plurality of communication apparatuses receives the transmission timing information transmitted from said transmission source communication apparatus and determines, based on the timing indicated by the received transmission timing information, waiting timing at which an operation of waiting for receipt of the connection request command transmitted from said transmission source communication apparatus is performed.

A communication method in a communication system that comprises a plurality of communication apparatuses and that transmits and receives a connection request command between said plurality of communication apparatuses to establish a connection between said plurality of communication apparatuses, the communication method comprising:

transmitting, by a transmission source communication apparatus, as a transmission source of the connection request command from among said plurality of communication apparatuses, transmission timing information that indicates timing at which the connection request command is transmitted;
receiving, by a transmission destination communication apparatus, as a transmission destination of the connection request command from among said plurality of communication apparatuses, the transmission timing information transmitted from said transmission source communication apparatus;
and
determining, by said transmission destination communication apparatus, waiting timing at which an operation of waiting for receipt of the connection request command transmitted from said transmission source communication apparatus based on the timing indicated by the received transmission timing information is performed.
