Abstract

A master node (12) sends an identification signal for designating a communication channel in an identification signal time slot. When the own node matches the node in which the communication channel designated by the identification signal sent from the master node (12) is set in the identification signal time slot, the master node (12) and slave nodes (131 to 13n) each perform data transmission via the communication channel, based on the set contents of the communication channel, in the data transmission time slot corresponding to the identification signal time slot in which the identification signal has been sent.
