Abstract
A node includes: a packet control unit that receives, from the center node, a request packet including a data part and a header part, a MAC (Media Access Control) address of the center node and position information of the center node being described in the data part, a positive integer value being described in the header part as time to live; if determining that a value of the time to live described in the header part of the request packet is 0, generates a reply packet including a data part, all of MAC addresses and all pieces of position information described in the data part of the received request packet being described in the data part of the reply packet; and transmits the reply packet to a request source node as a source of the received request packet.
