Abstract
[Object] To provide innovation with respect to which synchronization signal a communication device uses to conduct a synchronization process. [Solution] Provided is a communication device including: a selection unit configured to select a synchronization signal from respective synchronization signals received from two or more other devices on a basis of origin information that is acquired by communication with another device and that indicates an origin of a synchronization signal used for acquisition of synchronization timing in the other device; and a synchronization processing unit configured to acquire synchronization timing using the synchronization signal selected by the selection unit.
Claims1
