Abstract
According to an embodiment, a communication device is connected to a plurality of external communication devices. The communication device includes one or more hardware processors. The processors receive frames transmitted from the plurality of external communication devices at timings prescribed for each of the plurality of external communication devices. The processors calculate, for each of the plurality of external communication devices, an arrival ratio indicating a ratio at which transmitted frames have reached the communication device, based on a number of timings in a measurement period and a number of frames received in the measurement period.
Claims9
A communication device that is connected to a plurality of external communication devices, comprising:
- one or more hardware processors configured to:
- receive frames transmitted from the plurality of external communication devices at timings prescribed for each of the plurality of external communication devices;
- and
- calculate, for each of the plurality of external communication devices, an arrival ratio indicating a ratio at which transmitted frames have reached the communication device, based on a number of timings in a measurement period and a number of frames received in the measurement period.
A communication method to be performed by a communication device that is connected to a plurality of external communication devices, comprising:
- receiving frames transmitted from the plurality of external communication devices at timings prescribed for each of the plurality of external communication devices;
- and
- calculating, for each of the external communication devices, an arrival ratio indicating a ratio at which transmitted frames have reached the communication device, based on a number of timings in a measurement period and a number of frames received in the measurement period.
A computer program product having a non-transitory computer readable medium including programmed instructions, wherein the instructions, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform:
- receiving frames transmitted from the plurality of external communication devices at timings prescribed for each of the plurality of external communication devices;
- and
- calculating, for each of the external communication devices, an arrival ratio indicating a ratio at which transmitted frames have reached the communication device, based on a number of timings in a measurement period and a number of frames received in the measurement period.
