Abstract

A communication unit (2020) performs directly wireless communicates with a portable terminal (3000). A collection information acquisition unit (2040) acquires collection information. A division transmission unit (2060) generates multiple pieces of partial collection information by dividing the collection information, and transmits pieces of partial collection information being different from each other to multiple portable terminals (3000). A redundancy transmission unit (2080) transmits the same collection information to the multiple portable terminals (3000). An index value acquisition unit (2100) acquires any one or two of a reliability index value and a capacity index value of the portable terminal (3000). Based on any one or two of the reliability index value and the capacity index value of each portable terminal (3000), a transmission control unit (2120) selects the division transmission unit (2060) or the redundancy transmission unit (2080) to perform the transmission.
