Abstract

A communication system includes a group setting means, a first communication means, and a second communication means. The group setting means sets groups such that each of devices belongs to one of first-type groups, and to one of second-type groups. The first communication means enables, in each of the first-type groups, each of devices belonging to a first-type group to send its own data to other devices belonging to the same first-type group as the device. The second communication means enables, in each of the second-type groups, each of devices belonging to a second-type group to send its own data and data received from other devices belonging to a same first-type group as the device, to other devices belonging to the same second-type group as the device.
