Abstract

A first communication device transmits a signal addressed to a second communication device by the use of one of resources included in a resource pool selected from a set of resource pools. On the other hand, each of third communication devices which relay the radio communication between the first communication device and the second communication device selects one resource pool from the set of resource pools in accordance with a predetermined rule which is defined on the basis of a hop count at the third communication device in the radio communication between the first communication device and the second communication device and the resource pool selected by the first communication device, and transfer the signal addressed to the second communication device by the use of one of the resources included in the selected resource pool to a next communication device in a relay order or the second communication device.
