Abstract
A management device manages a plurality of communication devices in a communication system that communicates according to a predetermined beacon period. The management device includes a processor. The processor acquires, from each of the communication devices, transmission data information that is information including a data amount and a transmission priority relating to data to be transmitted in the next beacon period; determines, based on a plurality of pieces of the transmission data information acquired, a transmission data amount allowed for each of the communication devices in the next beacon period; and notifies the communication devices of the determined transmission data amount in the current beacon period.
