Abstract

L'invention concerne un terminal de communication (9) qui transmet des informations. Le terminal comprend une unité de communication et une unité de commande pour commander l'unité de communication. Via l'unité de communication, l'unité de commande transmet un signal de confirmation de nécessité de transmission contenant un ID de terminal pour identifier le terminal (9) et un ID d'informations pour identifier des informations (SQ9004). Via l'unité de communication, l'unité de commande transmet les informations à condition qu'un premier signal de réponse de nécessité de transmission soit reçu en réponse à un premier signal de confirmation de nécessité de transmission durant une période prescrite, et qu'un second signal de réponse de nécessité de transmission ne soit pas reçu durant la période prescrite en réponse à un second signal de confirmation de nécessité de transmission différent du premier signal de confirmation de nécessité de transmission (SQ9006).
